Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, All tested okay. I had some issues with Census records where there are vessels involved, as in fishing vessels. The Page Number is not used for those records. So I manually tweaked the result to add Page: 1 which appears to be the expected value; although not present in the reference data t...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike. Thank you very much. I'll test thoroughly starting tomorrow afternoon now as I'm off to bed now.

I have downloaded the Plug-In and installed okay.

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike Sorry to be fussy, but all the 1841 to 1911 Census Publication Info fields start with HO or RG. So would it be more consistent if 1921 started RG15 without the Archive series: prefix and that 1939 started RG101 without the Source Reference: prefix? Mike that makes absolute sense to me, thank...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, thank you for this. Re the 1861 Census, I would suggest only correcting this one anomaly so rg 9 becomes RG9 so caps and no space, unless you intend to make wider use of the final version Plug-In for a wider user base; then others might want it selectable, I don't know, but I prefer the Cap...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, sincere apologies for the delay in replying , been a bit poorly lately. Here is the additional information you requested. I have included the 1939 Register so although not a Census if you can do anything with this method of ORA coding that would be very welcome. I have provided all the Cens...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, sorry for the delay... Here are the remaining Census formats, if you would be so kind as to add these to Plug-In when you have a moment. Thank you very much. 1851 HO107, Piece: 1952, Folio: 336, Page: 47 1861 RG9, Piece: 534, Folio: 63, Page: 6 1871 RG10, Piece: 1004, Folio: 68, Page: 40 18...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike All three census years 1841, 1881 and 1911 now exist in the Lost Cousins Website. Out of 598 individuals only 27 were rejected due to 'Cannot Determine Age'. I need to find out how to correct that issue. I'll come back in a few days to discuss those remaining Census years. Thanks once again....

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Thank you Brian for your input, yes I'm aware of the FTA behaviour but to be fair it has helped me more than hindered.

As Ruth says there are correction opportunities at every stage of the transfer.

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, I can confirm all looks good in FH for the three census you have coded. As expected 1911 needs a few tweaks due to missing ORA data to around 5 records. I can handle that manually. Many thanks for your nice work. I need a few days to get this through the FTA > Lost Cousins route but as far ...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike, just a quick thank you, 1841 is looking very good in FH, but I need to investigate some anomalies in FTA before loading to Lost Cousins. I'll carry of tomorrow now...

Thank you very much indeed.

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike I made the test without the colons and commas and all looks good in both FTA and Lost Cousins. Strangely FTA re formats the Census Reference and replaces the Colons and Comma's. So good either way it would seem. I'll go for what ever is easiest for you. My slight preference would be with the...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

JELV is correct, for the 1911 Census Lost Cousins only requires Piece and Schedule Number. What it does when loading the GEDCOM is strip out unnecessary information. However, I still need a useful reference within FH. So I would say we provide the following: RG14, Piece: 32044, ED, Institution or Ve...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

I have checked quite a few now and honestly the information is not consistently placed or is missing. Attached are two examples, the first being the screen shot I sent before but definitely scrolled to the bottom of what is available, there is no Schedule number. Note: a lot of the #ORA data capture...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Let me check a few more 1911 to check the pattern. This Census is for an Institution so that may explain why.
Back soon.

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike The 1911 Census Reference accepted by Lost Cousins is as per the attached image. There are some challenges when extracting from the #ORA notes files for both 1841 and 1911 in that the data we need to extract is spread around within the #ORA note. I have attached images of those two files sho...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike

I can confirm the following format for the 1841 Census works okay with Lost Cousins. See Attached
I'll take a look at the 1911 Census format needs tomorrow.

Have a good evening.

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

I'll make some further testing to be sure FTA accepts the format for 1841 and 1911 Census. Or work out what it should be.

Good Morning Mike The 1841 UK Census #ORA data looks like the attached image. So uses the HO107 designator rather than RG## Followed by: Folio Page Line Then the 1911 is simplified to: Class Piece Schedule Number Where is Class is RG14 These are the only England and Wales Census records currently su...

Re: Trying to import Census Reference info for use in FTAnalyzer

Hi Mike Tested thoroughly and all working okay. Super work and thank you so much, this saved me a lot of time correcting data fields manually. Can I please ask for one more adjustment: If the Plug-In is solely for my benefit can you please expand the list of selectable Census Years to be 1841 - 1921...
