Cambridgeshire stats look low if I am reading them correctly.

[BevHowlett]

Hi
Many thanks for your message. CAM stats are low mainly because I haven't got volunteers prepared to work on CAM. All of the 1891 cen has been transcribed now but I have no checkers working on CAM so we can not complete the work. I have just taken over CAM 1861 and there are plenty of areas available to transcribe. The project is totally reliant on volunteers and the work they want to look at. Bev
All help is much appreciated. Bev
