Hi Eddy

Does it not say in 1901 where he was born?

I searched 1851 and this was the only William with father John. There were a couple without fathers.

Eleanor Corris abt 1829  Whitehaven, Cumberland, England Servant  Liverpool  Lancashire   
Elizabeth Nicholson abt 1831  Ferness Broughton Daughter  Liverpool  Lancashire   
Elmore Nicholson abt 1838  Ferness Broughton Daughter  Liverpool  Lancashire

I also searched by John Nicholson, gardener. Closest was a William Nicholls in Manchester.

What about this family? John worked on the railway, but there is a WH born 1839.

Request completed.

Thanks

Not supporting the 'early' release of 1911 is based on the belief the 100yr  rule is hardfast. It is not. Very few of the earlier census were kept closed for the full 100years. I believe Denis McCready's site has full details.

I actually accessed 1901 census details of my grandfather's family in 1994. As I was next of kin I was entitled to access them, for a fee. I would gladly pay a fee to access my grandmother's 1911 census details *NOW*. My grandmother grew up without an identity thanks to 'information privacy' laws. Exactly who are we protecting here?


That said, if there is no actual legislation that prevents opening 1911 now to everyone, then release it.
