In your dreams! Censuses are not released for 100 years, so the latest available is 1901. The 1911 census is due to be open to the public in 2012. The 1931 was - I think - destroyed, and the 1941 wasn't taken because of the war. nell

Do you mean the electoral roll? The 2001 census won't be online until 2102, as there is a 100 year closure on census returns. We haven't got the 1911 census online yet!!! Kath. x

Alan Considering that it is due for release in less than 7 years and as far as I know there are no plans to index it or put it online or microfilm it, I think we will be lucky to get at 50% of it. Guess which 50% my relatives will be in?! nell

I think this is a prime case for National lottery Heritage Fund assistance.
