1911 census - missing village

[dotty.]

a few years ago when the 1911 was on trial release i found my great grandfather living in fulletby lincolnshire and i have a copy of the page, now, using the ancestry index, i can only find him in the census summary books, when i try to search the index he isn;t listed in the actual returns, so i have trid the browing option and the entire village is missing from the drop down box for sub-districts in lincolnshire, i have tried to get into the returns via the original image option to see if it is there just not indexed but i am having trouble, could someone please double check for me to see if it's not just me!? it is william trafford born east barkwith 1853 and living in fulletby lincolnshire on his own, he is recorded as Mr Trafford in the summary books and so to find him there you have to enter Trafford and living fulletby. I know i have already got the image but i wanted to check all the ED and it is just not coming up!

I've got a William Trafford born 1861 in East Barkwith, Lincolnshire and living in Fulletby, Horncastle on FMP.RG number: RG14

Piece: 19805

Reference: RG14PN19805 RG78PN1185 RD419 SD2 ED14 SN30
He's described as a Cottager, General Labourer, and Married. Unfortunately it doesn't show any of his family and the link to the original census is not working. Is this him?

[dotty.]

yes it is, his 'wife' (never married in the whole 40 odd years they were together )
and 11 children were all living in Todmorden on the 1911, he is missing from that entry and so i did a general search and found him back in his birth county, but he was back in todmorden in 1915 when he died, he's buried next to my great grandmother at Cross Stone Tod. He is pictured with his family about 1904, (just posted it on my facebook) but why he went back to lincolnshire i don't know but i wanted to search the area in case his brothers or sisters were in that village in 1911. wonder why FMP haven't got the original either? it was definately there when the return was first released about 2009/10.

If I search on Fulletby in FMP it doesn't come up, but if I search on Trafford born East Barkwith I get a link to him. I wonder if it is under Horncastle?

I tried a search for Fulletby on FMP but it wouldn't find me anything...........

[Barmaid]

I've got the original page on my lappy as we type! And I have the option to go to "next image".

[dotty.]

that's what happens on ancestry when i search for anyone born fulletby yet the summary books lists the village, and when i check horncastle i don;t think fulletby is included in any of those EDs, though not checked them all yet.

[dotty.]

which original image barmaid? the actual one for william trafford in fulletby?

[craft1948]

oooh it's brought me loads up when I put in Fullerby as the civil parish and Fulletby as the street..................

[dotty.]

because my original image was copied from the 1911 trial issue i can't use a next page option as it is stand alone if you know wehat i mean, a copied image,

[dotty.]

FGS, ancestry have indexed it as fullerby, dozy sods! i can get into it now, grrrr thanks guys

[dotty.]

I know William's father dird in 1906 and left him £485.00 in his will, it makes me wonder if William didn't travel down to Lincolnshire for his father's funeral and decided not to go back home, the picture i have is taken about 1906 with him at home with all the kids,

SOrry, I went away and did a couple of jobs. But it sounds like you've sorted it now! Idiots that ancestry are!
