    Seriously, I cannot understand how transcribing these records could be so far off from what appears on the page.

    Does anyone have any idea "who" did it. I would understand a couple of off errors (heck my hand writing can be poor at times), but it is not limited to say just one province.

    Very sad indeed is all I can say.

    All I can say is the 1921 census is a god awful mess. It should be completely removed from all internet sites and redone from the beginning. Ancestry should be ashamed to have it on their site.
