Boy, am I glad my family escaped having the census taker, Isaac Norris Hunt...
  it makes the ineligible handwriting seem 'very minor'!  :)

Six months on and the article is still on the BBC website.

If I had a name like Isaac Hunt   :o (think about it!) I would be very careful to keep a low profile.

I had read somewhere else that Prince Albert had survived typhoid.  Can anyone confirm for me?
Also, when mentioning Thomas Hardy, I believe they neglected to mention his pivotal role at the Old St Pancras cemetery.

thank you.

I just went and checked my earlier notes, and it was the Prince of Wales who survived;  my mistake.
