Census Availability
« on: Tuesday 20 April 04 23:28 BST (UK) »
Hi

This has probably been asked lots of times but could someone please tell me if the 1861 and 1871 Census is available for Devon.

I am trying to trace my mother's family and want to determine when her grandfather came to Australia. I am hoping he was still around the Plymouth Devon area until he emigrated.

Thanks

Jaki
