   "My Geneaology ISP" means nothing to me.  I looked at the record on   
   Ancestry.   
      
   On the original schedule completed by the householder, Edward Curtain's   
   forename was written as "Ewdard".  Ancestry member marniedavis submitted   
   the correction "Edward" which is described as "a variation of the   
   recorded data."   
      
   There is no question of the official document being altered.  This never   
   happens when corrections (either amendments to the transcription or   
   variations as above) are submitted to sites such as Ancestry and FindMyPast.
