I am indexing the 1950 census. Twice now I have found a family listed but one person belonging to the family whose name is on the census record is no listed in the names listed to the right. Therefore, they cannot be included with the family. How can I add them?

    Hi @PHOlsen

    A Moderator can comment further if they want to confirm or correct my comment, but here is my opinion:

    I don't think you can. I think you need to alert the Census support staff to deal with it. You can do that by clicking on "Skip Household," then Another reason, and then Other where you can "describe the issue." Support will then be alerted to do something with it.

    Here is how Skip Household looks expanded as I suggested above:

    Do you mean there is no box to the left to add them to the group? If there is the little box to the left of the missing person when the family is first selected click on it. It will add them to the family group.
