1911 census ...
« on: Tuesday 07 April 09 23:10 BST (UK) »
 ... for Cumberland has arrived at  http://www.1911census.co.uk

Please don't expect lookups - it costs money - but it's there.
Don't cry because its over. Smile because it happened.

So I now discover that my Grandad's family had been in Bolton, Lancs for a few years, I needn't have waited for Cumberland at all :(

Fancy, he was a Cotton Doffer and I thought he was a Coal Miner!

Hi Goeff

Ooh , that must be infuriating!  I've been playing on my own family in Lancashire from the start, but I keep thinking I can doo lookups for my adopted families in Cumbria - so now I can!

Thank you Goeff.

Hi Geoff.
 
 Following your link for the Cumberland 1911 Census I tried to find some family information, being unable to succeed  I requested some which know to be 100%
correct, Unsuccessful again. I then find out Cumberland,Westmorland and Northumberland are the three England counties not yet available.

Hi

It's on now though,

I've had a few positive results.  I just have to save up for the images! 

I must admit though, the results I got and the searches I did, didn't sem to work together properly.  A couple of searches when I tried to narrow down came out negative, when searchwes I'd already done implied they would be positive - sorry, a bit long winded"!

Good luck!

from the 1911 site BLOG:-

All English counties now complete

April 8th, 2009
Overnight, we have uploaded records for the remaining English Counties (Northumberland, Cumberland, Westmorland) and added the missing Gateshead district records into the county of Durham (they were incorrectly listed as part of Northumberland - this is now fixed and they are searchable under Durham, as they should be).

Therefore all English counties are now complete.

Scanning of Welsh records is well underway and we are working on the transcriptions of the first batch of Welsh counties, which will be the next data release. Although we do not have a precise release date for them yet, we anticipate that we will have some data from Wales available in the next 4 to 6 weeks.
