Hi, I notice that the 1911 census is on line but not for Cumbria. Cannot find any info about when it may be added. Does anyone know anything about it?? Cass

A date hasn't been given yet.  They have a blog

http://blog.1911census.co.uk/

and if you are signed up for updates from the site, then you will get an email informing you when new stuff is added (at least that's what I'm led to believe)

Sorry i couldn't be more helpful, I really need Cumberland to try and crack a huge brick wall

Hi,
I'm researching the NICHOLSON family in Cumberland.
I emailed the 1911 census website and they said Cumberland should be online within one month.

Thats great news-may then be able to tie up some loose ends.

Thanks Kate, just went on all excited but to no avail. Have spent my 60 credits (not cheap) and got nothing. The family I am looking for seem to have vanished of the face of the earth. On other members there are too many to choose from and I chose the wrong ones!!!!!

Hi Cas

1911
What name were you looking for and the details you have already.

I was looking for James Fagan born in ireland in 1867. He married Sarah and lived in Workington. I could not find him on the 1901 census (but found Sarah and the family still in Workington) and now cannot find him on the 1911. I know he was still alive because he did not die until the 1930's. Also I was looking for John Joseph Sloan born in cumberland in 1875. I think in 1901 he was in the Durham area. I was looking for him because he was my great grandfathers brother and there was a John Sloan shot at dawn in the first world war and i am trying to ascertain if it was my rel. Wil wait until I have more time, and money!!, to sit down and think it out carefully to try and see which might be the correct ones. Thanks
