Is there a problem with England & Wales 1871 Census records?
I get research help to attach 1871 census record to a person in family tree, but when i click on the link I get "403 - Record access denied"
For example Judith Mitchell MLT3-MB3
I have manually added 1871 residence, but am unable to attach census record.
Thanks for any help,
John

Hi John
We simulated attaching the record hint from our end and it seems to be working correctly.
Things to check
Check the following
Clear cache and cookies
Use a supported browser and operating system and make sure they are up to date.
Windows 7 has had known display issues.
Make sure there are no pop up blockers preventing FamilySearch displaying correctly.

We have checked the problem you have experienced with attaching the 1871 census with the 403 error message in 2 different browsers and experienced no problems.
We have 2 suggestions for you.
First of all try deleting your cookies and temporary internet files and have attached and article for you.
The other suggestion would be for you to make sure your are using an updated compatible browser.

Hi,
Thank you both for your responses.
I have tried the suggestions but the problem with the 1871 Census persists.
For Judith Mitchell MLT3-MB3
https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/MLT3-MB3
the research help gives a link to 1871 Census, but it says "403 - Record access denied".
If I click Review and Attach I get "Not Found"
I have tried 2 other browsers on my PC, with the same results.
If I search 1871England & Wales Census for Judy Foster born Lincolnshire 1830-1840 I get no corresponding result, but I know she is there from FindMyPast.
The problem is only with 1871England & Wales Census.
Thanks agian

Idle thought: has someone flipped some sort of "LDS-only" switch on that census?
I ask because I also get the 403 error on Judith Mitchell's record hint.
