	I nudged the census dates thread for you. They were usually end of March/start of April, but look at the list as they do differ on occasion.

	Thanks for the nudge!! Would I be right in assuming that if I have an age on a census as 5wks I would be able to work out a more accurate birth year than one that just says 10yrs
