I was searching the 1901 census on Ancestry for someone born in Australia. I tried putting in just William born in Australia but he still wasn't there, so knowing what the transcription errors are like I searched for a William born in Austria. There were hundreds of them, mostly born in those well known Austrian towns of Melbourne and Sydney!

Aha! Transcriber must be related to the one who has decided that a lot of my 'missing' Drew people have those well known West Country names of; Iven, Drow, Drows, Drewa, and Drowa.
