Wendy, I am happy to say yes! Actually, I'd given up looking to see, after
months of having notified them, but your message on the London list prompted
me to do so!

I am now pleased to see that my husband's DEAN family are now there as DEAN
and not as SCAN as originally on the 1901 census - although clearly DEAN on
the downloaded image!

So yes, 'they' did take notice, but it took several months!
