Not sure where we had got to before, but the latest milestone reached is:

"Sort images by place
Match the digitized images to the census’s geographic districts and sub-districts. Create the metadata structure needed to enable online access."

Thanks for the heads up.

I can't work out how to use it though?

Or hasn't it come on-line yet?

carol8353, I don’t believe the census will be indexed yet. I don’t think this starts until 01 June? So it will be browse only to start. More info here…

The census is apparently being released today to the public and I expect Ancestry in its digitized form. It is my understanding that Ancestry will now index it and the public can browse it. I’m guessing one would need to know where folks were living to have much chance of finding them at the moment.

Added: don’t see it on the LAC website yet.
