I am offering a correction to the following record in the 1911 Nova Scotia Digby, 21 St. Bernard census, pg 25, line 34, household 247

http://automatedgenealogy.com/census11/View.jsp?id=70151
The name of my great grandmother is Rachel; the census taker had poor cursive skills and the transcriber identified her as ?e?ener.

When this is corrected, I will return to change the incorrect link suggested from her husband Douglas to the correct Douglas Mullen in the 1901 census.

thank you,
Cheryl

Hello Cheryl,

Unfortunately, the best I can read for your great-grandmother's given is: "Re?". The last caracters are not legible. However, I edited a footnote indicating that her real given is Rachel.

Hoping that an another adjudicator can do better, thanks for your input.

Michel Dubois, Quebec city.

Hi Cheryl -

I have accepted Michel's correction note to change the given name to "Re?". It is hard to construe Rachel from what is written there so I agree with "Re?".

Thanks also for pointing out that the 1901 link for Douglas is wrong. Looking at the 1901 entry, it certainly isn't Douglas and the birth month doesn't match. Neither Michel nor I don't have the ability to remove incorrect links but other volunteers do.

Thanks for your input. Mark

Thank you for making this partial correction and note.

I will now submit further corrections to this family record in a separate post.

Cheryl
