I think the census entry I need to see covers more than one page - only servants listed with the 3 month old child that I am interested in. Can anyone tell me how I will know if this is the case? Will there be an obvious annotation on the screen when I look at the original page that I have located? I wondered if I should click on previous household, but don’t want to spend 30 credits unnecessarily.

@John: we’re looking into this at the moment.

It would be very helpful to have the ability to see more that the 20-22 person search results per page that you get at the moment.
Is it possible to get a choice, e.g., 50, 100, 500, ALL?

I have been trying now since Sunday to view/download an image but keep getting the “Sorry were busy” message. I bought 60 credits on Saturday and viewed one image, but feel I may never be able to redeem my last 30 credits before they expire. I do hope this is not a scam - I have been trying at extraordinarliy unsocialbe hours - how busy can it be !!
