I had a case yesterday - death in 1912 - where there was a marginal note for the RCE and the date of the entry but there was nothing in the online RCE or the new mark  :( :( :(

It wasn't really all that important because I think it was a change in the mother's maiden name (which I knew) but annoying.

Unfortunately there is a number of RCEs that are indexed back to the wrong certificates. It may be that an RCE button shows when it shouldn't, or that the RCE button is missing when it should be displayed. If you find any certificates with an RCE mark and the RCE button is not there for you, then fill in a contact form and ScotlandsPeople or GROS will reply to you, usually with a copy of the RCE image.

I think that steam engines were still in use in 1880.

For example, see

It was more the time of year rather than the year itself.  :) Thanks for your reply though.

Thanks for letting us know, Douglas.  I have been anxiously awaiting this and didn't see any update the last time I was on Scotland's People.  With luck, this should open up a whole new branch for me.  Off to buy credits!
