George

You have been given the parents names for John Richard Goodwin Brewer born 1908 on your other threads. If you think these names are wrong then why not buy the birth certificate (reference for this is also on your other thread). Here it is again:-


Name: BREWER, John Richard G
Registration district: Fylde
County: Lancashire
Year of registration: 1908
Quarter of registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Mother's maiden name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume no: 8E
Page no: 692

They just said they had many volunteers try them as I used Find Ancestry many time before I thought there may be different people on here who may have chatted about transcriptions before.

George as Gwyn said

Which site are you looking on?
Are you viewing the actual image ?

All online censuses are copies of actual census images, The originals are historic documents and cannot be altered/corrected.

Various sites do have the facility for errors on transcriptions to be corrected but GR don't actualy hold their own census records so they will not be able to correct any errors

Does anyone know how you can have a census checked out that is obviously wrong and for corrections to be made.
