Thanks for the link Calpe,  I know from ships passenger lists that my gfather, gmother and aunt travelled to Gibraltar  several times in the 1920's and 1930's...and I believe another aunt may have lived there...I have not explored why yet but this may well be a start...yet more reading to do!!!
Thanks
Bill

Thank you for posting the link to this site, it has been very helpful.

The website mentions that there was a full census in 1834. Does anybody know if this is available anywhere?

Thanks  :)
