1901 Census Leftovers
Instructions for Submissions |
|
First of all a word of explanation: Due to the sheer volume of files being submitted by various genealogists, We have to limit the format and layout of files that can be accepted, If we have to spend time copying and pasting bits and pieces of your data into a file of the correct format and layout, it means that someone else's data doesn't get done at all, I'm sure that none of us wants this. Please transcribe the whole image and not just your ancestors,
We use the Pi/Fo/Pa numbers to prevent duplicates being uploaded, which means that
if you send details of three people from one image, and three months down the
line someone else sends the whole page, their transcription will be politely
refused when the checks reveal that those numbers are already included, meaning
that we all miss out on possible information. Please scroll down and read on to see important stuff about Pi//Fo//Pa numbers and format of files.......... Pi//Fo//PaThis is what we call the Piece, Folio and Page number. The Piece number can be found at the bottom of the page, it's what comes after the RG 13/ In this case it is 1939
The Folio and Page number can be found at the top right of the page, quite close together. In this example the Folio number is 66 and the Page number is 5 [honest!]
For some reason, the Folio numbers were only stamped on the odd numbered pages, so if you happen to have downloaded an even numbered page like this one, you won't find a Folio number. Please replace with two question marks.
Important, now you know the Pi//Fo//pa number, please check (Pi-Fo-Pa Search),
File Names: Use capitals for SURNAMES and two // [forward slashes] for the Pi//Fo//Pa numbers. Using two // is the easiest way to stop this 5199/10/2 turning into this 02/10/5199 when it's copied and pasted ready to be included on this site.
Please add your name and contact details as shown below to avoid mix ups, once
the file is downloaded onto RootsChat, and the email it came with has been deleted, we have no
way of knowing who it came from, unless your name and e-mail are in the
file somewhere. These are the fields you need to include
These are examples of how a file can be submitted Exel spreadsheet
Please submit your excel files in "Microsoft Excel 97/2000" format. Please add your name and contact details as shown above to avoid mix ups Once you have your file ready, send it to us as an attachment to
