You say that you have found George and Rhoda SMITH in the Northamptonshire census but I can find no trace of them in 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871 or 1881 in that county.

You need to say more so that helpers can go over your work and progress it.

Hi.

Welcome to Rootschat pennysteve 

There is a tree on Anc*** which seems to be in-correct.

I guess the family are on Rg10/2929 Pg. 10 in the hamlet of Orton nr
Wombourne, Staffs and were Sulgrave comes into the picture.

On the 1861 they are here.

Rg9/2058 Pg 48, Level Woodside Dudley, Staffs.

They are a bit hard to trace back from there.

There is a baptism for Rhoda at Newnham on the 19 Feb 1815 to parents
Moses (who was noted as gipsy) & Lucretia

1901STF-2762/9/10 Emmanuel (40) bsk.mkr, Joanna (50) +1

They are linked to other SMITHs at the same parishes and census extracts so it is worth following them up.

The full piece number, for example, 2762/9/10 is made up of the piece number (2762) the folio number (9) and the page number (10). Sometimes, when looking at the original image, the foliio number is unseen because it occurs on the previous page and this leads to mistakenly calling the folio number the 'page' number.

There is nothing wrong with saying 'Ancestry'. If it is the source then you can quote the source without breaking any laws. Also, transcribing a census entry is not a breach of copyright although it is annoying if it is not transcribed accurately.
