If you presented with a blank screen when trying to view an image, try this 'work around' posted on the Ancestry facebook page.

"....if you look near the beginning of that link you have provided there is a section which reads "backurl=" and if you delete everything past that the image will load properly. We hope to have the issue resolved soon!"

There's an awful lot of bumpf after "backurl= " but it does work!

Excellent!
My maternal grandparents and their ancestors for several generations back were from Oxfordshire.

Thank you - as one branch of my mob lived on the borders of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire, there ought to be some trace of them in the PR!

Now on Ancestry - with very good scans {done by OFHS}

The indexing {Ancestry} is prompting some comments :-(
