Ancestry and references in census returns

Ancestry

I was looking at Ancestry for one of my families who  lived in Smethwick, staffordshire. 
I selected all the people on the same page and the first entry on the page was shown with the refence from the previous page.  This was because the household in the census page was split over 2 pages. 

Always worth checking the origional for information like this, has the transcript may have missed something.  I was checking for William Addison and the reference given is - RG11/2963 F24 Pg 43.
