I just received this email and thought i'd share it with you all.
I'll post it on the Norfolk Board too
Hello
I am very pleased to be able to advise you that the first piece from the
1861 census (covering Ludham RG09/1197) is now available to search free
on line. I would like to thank Scott for transcribing, Sonia for
checking and Clare for Validating the piece, without their help this
information would not be available.
If you wish to search the online database please go to
http://www.freecen.org.uk <http://www.freecen.org.uk/> and follow the
link to search the database, there are also other links which will let
you know the coverage for each county for each census year. The amount
of Norfolk data is fairly small at the moment but there are many
volunteers working hard to increase it. If you would like to help there
are 24 1861 pieces still to be allocated for transcription and I would
love to hear from you. Please contact Bev at bandys**@worldonline.co.uk ( remove stars to reply)
for further details.
Best wishes
Bev
