Census records
« on: Friday 13 January 17 15:41 GMT (UK) »
I have been working on my family tree for about 3 years, and have just learned another valuable lesson about census records, don't trust the translators of the old hand writing!  Have been searching for a wrong name as I didnt study the original and the name Eurtan should have read Eustace!
