.........and finally a reply appeared which stated the following

"Dear Mrs Meek
 
Thank you for your recent enquiry.
 
We have checked the pages at the index reference 1985 September 14 1583 & 1584.
 
The entry for George Twigg appears on page 1584.
 
We can only advise that an error was made at the time the indexes were compiled which shows the name on both page 1583 & 1584.
 
We hope this information helps.
 
Regards"

So nothing untoward, just human error.

Thanks everyone for your input.

Sally

I wonder if they have noticed all the other doubled entries, as in Reply #15.

[meekhcs]

Or if they have will they actually do anything about them!

I wonder if they have noticed all the other doubled entries, as in Reply #15.

Is it anything more than one page of returns being accidentally keyed in twice without the clerk noticing ?

Apologies Andrew
I have been away for a few weeks since my last reply.
Referring back to post 15 it appears that it is not just a straightforward double of one page.
I am going to bring this post to a close now as my query has been answered.
Thank you all.
