Find your family, all long weekend

[Melbell]

I feel silly.  I have just taken out the annual sub at £59.99 but cannot find the auto-renew button to untick!

Please can anyone tell me where it's hidden?

Thanks!  By the way, I am logged in.

I did not think there was an auto renew tick on Ancestry, I know there is one on FindMyPast.

You're right Rosie - I was thinking of FindMyPast. It's a bit crafty really, they send you a reminder a month before and if you don't cancel, it auto renews. So you have to make sure you watch out for that email and cancel then or make a note of when your subs is up for renewal. They don't remind you for monthly subs!

Strike when the iron is hot. I shall certainly be checking up on those rellies that went abroad.

I'll be very surprised if you find them!  You just get a random selection of records that vaguely match the name entered.

I was hoping to find people in the 1911 census, to enter the details at Lost Cousins (also free this weekend, folks!), but Ancestry won't reveal the reference numbers (folio, page, and so on) unless one subscribes.

But there are no folio/page numbers for 1911.
Unlike the earlier years, for 1911 we see the original household schedules.
There is a piece number, which is given by ancestry.
They usually give the schedule number in their transcript (but not always!) If they don't, then it can be found in the top right hand corner of the schedule, or in the enumerator's summary books. Would Lost Cousins want that?

Glad to have been of assistance.  . Don’t forget to keep checking the automatic renewal is unticked so they don’t charge you full price next year.

Oh yes! They send me an email, so I unsubscribe from that.

Thank you, jonw65.

The schedule number is there at top right of the form, but no piece number which is also required.
As non-subscribers we see only the form, no transcript.

For the 1841 census one has to state piece, book, folio, and page.
I see something like HO107/577.18, which I assume is just piece and book.
Page number is on the page, of course, but where is the folio number?

Thanks Rosie and Groom

That's not very good, but at least I don't feel daft not being able to find the button!

Are you able to click the second button down on the right hand side (looks like a bar with an arrow to the left), one of the buttons to the right of the next page button?  If you can, select source and the piece number is on there.
