Well hooray for wi-fi on caravan sites, is what I say! ;D

I now have both my nan and my grandad, with their parents, plus some of their older siblings, including grandad's brother James, who was killed in WW1.

The quality isn't great, is it and it seems to want to jiggle around a lot when I'm trying to move the image up or down. But it's better than nothing and once I get home, I shall print them all so will have no further need of using their silly viewing thingy.

PS - Scotland is very wet and windy tonight. My van is wobbling like the census screen did. ::)

Woo Hoo I found my great grandfather straight away, he was 16 and it was the last census he was on before he was killed in WW1. Strangely his brother was down as the head of household, don't know here their father was  ??? He didn't die until 1945, and the children were living alone aged 23 - 9.

I also found my gg uncle with his wife and daughter, as usual it only stated Ireland for her birth and not which county  :'(

Now need to find where the other three brothers and the father is. Very pleased so far.
Petts in Hertfordshire,Chelsea & New Zealand.<br />Swift in Islington, Chelsea &  Battersea.<br />Cox in Chelsea.<br />Carter in Chelsea.<br />Little in Westminster, London.<br />Munn & McAulay in Duntocher, Scotland.<br />
Munn New Jersey and Oz
Dwyer, McManus & Kiernan in Ireland.<br />Turner in Shrewsbury.<br />Cannon in London.<br />Porter in London.<br />Kinner in Chelsea, London.<br />Le Breton

Re: 1911 Census for Scotland - Search Facilities

I have just started searching.
What a shame that you cannot search for somebody by where they were born. It would make it so much easier.


Inchworm, I find the whole search parameters/fields really basic compared to the E&W census available on various websites.  I'm spending not only a fair bit of money but a whole lot of time trawling through the results of my searches.  I spent yesterday at the SP Centre and it wasn't really any clearer there.  No guidance folders/info except for approaching the Supervisors.  Maybe others have had a different experience?

I love the Scotland's people site for BMD's, I wouldn't have got so far with my Scottish family without it however I've been very disappointed with not being able to narrow down my 1911 census searches  :(
