hi all just wondering if there is a search limit or something similar as for the third time I have been happily searching in the census records only to suddenly start getting blank pages when I try to view?? I am a gold member so I am baffled as to why I keep getting this happen, sorry if this explained somewhere and I've missed it.

For those who think that it is somehow wrong for GR not to transcribe their own records.

Wendy, do consider keeping a copy at least of your family tree offline.

I keep full details on an offline tree and only put the basic info on here - I understand a lot of others do too.

It's partly because it's so much quicker and easier as well as I find adding stuff to the tree on here is very slow and then I can't print it out properly!

det no there isnt a next page when I click on the print tree option I get a white page come up with a tiny square in the top left corner which does nothing the words "print preview" at the top of the white page and thats it?? so annoying cos l would really like to print this off so l can see a better idea where everybody is.
l dont spose it helps that l am now having to try and speed things up as m l am having to try to go forward now to see if l can find living siblings as my uncle (mothers brother) is not in the best of health due age (77)+ a heart condition, showing sighns of dementia, he really wants to see if there are any other family out there as my mother has vanished off to Cornwall +is barely in touch, so although I was casually looking for family before I am now desperately trying bring things forward quicker in the hope of finding family for him before its too late.
