1911 census for glamorgan.

Can sanyone say when the 1911 census will be available for Glamorgan.  It seems so unfair to have to wait just because your forebears lived in Wales.

Yours not happy,

Rob.

Hi Rob,

As far as I'm aware at the moment, there will be a 2 month wait before we get the 1911 census for Wales. However, as some English counties still have yet to publish their census returns I'm assuming that not all of the Welsh counties will be released together either. The county borders for Wales moved about a lot during those days so with Glamorganshire being the size it was it will probably  either be amongst the first or last to be published. Whatever happens, I'm guessing that 2 months wait might grow to 3 as they're running behind on the English returns. I hope that is of some help to you.

Regards,

Goleudy

I am waiting with impatience for 1911 Wales, Glamorgan in particular.  If no one else posts here when it is online....I will, can't wait!!!!

I remember the 1901 coming out when I had just started doing my tree - I just couldn't believe how far back I got from that. The 1911 is going to be a godsend if my relatives have actually put down their birthplaces instead of just ''Ireland''.

It was very unclear when 1911 first went on-line that Wales would not be available.

I purchased credits mainly to look at Glamorgan, & am very annoyed that I could have hung on until it was! It really wasn't made plain in the Press that this was going to be the case...

I've been making do with the very few siblings of my direct lines who weren't in Wales at the time, but it's a very poor substitute. I'm so looking forward to seeing their writing and I might find out how many children my g-grandmother really had. My father claimed it was over 20!

I'm looking forward to finding out wjere my great grandmother was in 1911 She married a sailor so if she's not Wales there's only about 50 countries to check out.  It's an easy life eh??
