Hi Summer,

It's possible to search the 1881 census free at http://www.familysearch.org

There are various sites with some or all of the other available censuses (1841-1901) on a pay-as-you-view or subscription basis, including http://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/ and http://www.1837online.com

If you're in the UK, larger libraries have the censuses on microfilm, and CDs are available commercially.

You can always post lookup requests on the relevant county board, as RootsChatters have access to all kinds of resources they are willing to share!

Morning Rambler,

Yet again I have to say special Thank You, the links you have posted I will try later today...I hope that in time I am able to give advise to a newbie, the same as you have done for me...

Can I ask what gave you the push to start doing your family research,.
If I had not gone to Ireland (Cobh) with friends last October I may never have done this.....cheers Summer

I think I was always interested in "family" - my maternal grandparents told all kinds of tales about weird and wonderful rellies, and my uncle started researching that side 20+ years ago.  I joined in when I first got internet access and bought some genealogy software, and things just took off from there....

Hi Summer

Don' know whether you are aware of the Surname Interest Table created by Berlin Bob for rootschatters.

I looked up Scanlon and there a 3 entries.

Hi Summers,

I checked the WWI Database for Canadian Soliders and there was a Phelim Scanlon, born Belfast, Ireland who served.  His father is listed as Phelim Scanlon with an address of 27 Prince Consort Lane, Hebburn, England.

Here's a link to his papers on-line
