A number of my ancestors (within the same family) that have a Record Hint for a 1950 US Census, for which I receive the following message when I attempt to view it.

"We're unable to show this record to you.

This record can only be displayed on certain accounts. FamilySearch must honor the agreements we have with our partners, record owners, and internal policies."


Could this Record Hint only appear on those accounts for which it can be viewed? Or if this is avaialbe for veiwing at a Family History Center, could that be stated? Otherwise don't have it available, when really it is not available.


It's a waste of time to attempt to attach something that's really not there.


Thanks, Chris

    I think a lot of websites are being hacked especially our church by nefarious people. This is happening to me too today and it is not normal.

    The permissions on the 1950 census are wonky. They're supposedly aware of the problem and trying to fix it.

    Nothing to do with hacking or anything nefarious. There is a problem with the 1950 census, and the engineers have been working on the problem.
