I haven't been on here for a while so I'm hoplessly out of date.

How long has the 1911 census been online?

It hasn't demolished my brickwall though,unfortunately!

It came online today - my brickwall is similarly firmly in place! :(

Form says just put country so that's what great-great-great-grandfather did - just "Germany"   >:(


Ah well, I'm sure it'll still be interesting to follow all their lives another 10 years.....

This is the first census which will show my grandfathers - my paternal grandmother was still "baking" and my maternal grandmother never left Australia so they're not there.

All part of the puzzle!  ;D

Good morning Happy Granny,

The 1911 census went online today. It suddenly makes the fact that I have to get up for work at 5am worthwhile as I can beat the rush and managed to find both my Granny and grandad. ;D

Thanks.

It was found by a complete fluke...a sleepless night so I decided to have a look at my tree after a few months rest.I was trying to look at it with fresh eyes!
I signed into the 1901 site and saw the 1911 census.

I thought,after a lot of discussion on this site, that the 1911 census wasn't going to be released early.

No it doesn't appear to be blanked out.

I must admit though it hasn't got me any further... yet!

The credits disappeared in the blink of an eye though, as I wanted to look at a couple of originals.

I have only just noticed that my great grandfather is described on the 1911

census as a "builder labour (sic) in receipt of an old age Russian" !! :P

Conjures up all sorts of pictures
