« on: Wednesday 11 March 09 23:44 GMT (UK) »

"Great news for people trying top trace their roots, the 1881 Census has now been released for public viewing".

I'm with you Fergie.

Surely a typo misread on the auto boards.

just checked on SP website - they have the images up there now, and their own index, as well as the old LDS one  :)

Excellent Pru.

For a few minutes though, I was hoping they'd changed the law about 1911.

Nice to get news in context.
