I think that I have found a couple of errors on an entry, but I'm not sure how to suggest a correction.

On:

"England and Wales, Census, 1901", FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X9G7-PQF : Wed Feb 12 20:36:44 UTC 2025), Entry for William T Cain and Jame M Cain, 31 Mar 1901.

The principal person is listed as Jame M Cain; I suspect the entry should read Jane May Cain.

Also, in the accompanying family links I believe Harray Cain should be Harry Cain and William T Cain could be elaborated to William Thomas Cain.

Thanks for all the work folks have put into this resource

    @BradCain

    When the image is not on FamilySearch, we users cannot edit the index/extract. Reviewing the source, the index on FindMyPast shows "James M Cain." And the image appears to be "Jame M Cain." The m is clearly formed with 3 humps - even if it may be in error.

    "England and Wales, Census, 1901." Database. FamilySearch. http://FamilySearch.org : 23 March 2026. From "1901 England, Scotland and Wales census." Database and images. findmypast. http://www.findmypast.com : n.d. Citing PRO RG 13. The National Archives, Kew, Surrey.

    You can see the image here, with the share link from Ancestry, household 101:

    Hope this helps.
