Subject: 1861 census now available on 1837online.com
they forget to say England - only
As any genealogist knows, among the primary building blocks of family history research are census returns and birth, marriage and death indexes. Accordingly, we are pleased to announce that a full transcription and original images of the 1861 census are now available online at www.1837online.com.
The way we have scanned, transcribed and indexed the 1861 census will provide you with new and advanced searching techniques. One of the highlights is that when you search for an individual, you will also be able to search simultaneously for another person who lived in the same household, simply by entering their name into the search criteria. This should help you locate your ancestors more quickly and easily than in any other census online.
The census information for London, Kent, Middlesex and Surrey is the first to be made available and you can start searching these records now. Over the coming few months, we will launch further data, county by county, and we will notify you each time a new set is ready.
The next counties will be:
Essex
Lancashire
Yorkshire
Worcestershire
To help you start using the census, you can also read a new article on our website titled 'Understanding the Census'. The article has been written by Dr. Nick Barratt, the resident genealogist on the BBC's 'Who Do You Think You Are?' TV programme.
