Title: Ancestry's LMA images - problem seeing double-page entry
Post by: Stovepipe on Wednesday 01 April 09 13:01 BST (UK)
Does anyone know how I can see the right-hand page image in a Lambeth Workhouse Births entry that spans two pages?  Clicking the next button merely takes me to the next left-hand page, i.e. the page after the one I want to see.

For example, I can find the 1893 birth of Frederick Jary RICHARDS in the index, but when I view the image I can't see his name because only the left page of the register entry is displayed.  I'd like to see the full entry across both pages to get all available information, and to check Ancestry's transcription of the child's given name (although it's probably correct - what I can see was written in a very legible hand and Frederick Jary occurs in the civil registration births index).

I'm not a subscriber to Ancestry so I haven't emailed them; I use the edition at my local library.

Thanks for any help,
Stovepipe

Hi Stovepipe are you still looking for information on Frederick Jary Richards? In the Lambeth records.

I'm guessing you are looking at Image 4 of 29. Yes? In which case try Image 19 of 29. There isn't much there, but worth seeing for completeness. Did you see his baptism under Lambeth St.Philip too?
