Anna......yes you have to try all possibilities with 1901.....my grandmother
Mable Harwood was for some reason aged 11a visitor in Lydney
Gloucester......she was enumerated by the enumerator as South Wales not a
given county.....so that is another possible one to search....I was lucky in
that she had a rare name........

Subject: [Cmn-L] Carmarthenshire errors on 1901 Census
In accessing the index I found 'C Then' and 'Caermarthen
St Peters' in
the
''where born' section. Only found because I used 'Carmarthen' in the
'other'
section. Presumably one an abbreviation by the census taker and ther
other a
spelling mistake. You do wonder what other errors there are that stop
you
finding your families.
