At last, all those purple in the face due to holding your breath.  It is here.

1861 is now online, pay per view, at Scotlandspeople.

I haven't checked the coverage yet so buyer beware.

Cheers,

I was really pleased to see the 1861 census live and have filled in a few gaps in the family but I was looking at census records in Kiltarlity, Inverness and was disappointed to see that no image is available.  There is no explanation in the 1861 census blurb to say that some images are still to be made available.  Does this mean my only option is a visit to New Register House or order on line or are there still some gaps to be filled in? 

Has anyone any idea what the sketch is?

Thanks.
