SERVICE UPDATE: The 1911 Census will beavailable on subscription from October
Dear #FirstName#,
We hope that you’ve been enjoying using the 1911 Census: we are delighted to let you know that following the completion of the final records in June, we are now preparing to make it available as a new subscription package on our sister website, findmypast.com.
Final preparations are underway, and the census will be available online on the findmypast.com website from October 21st, allowing you to search the records at your leisure. 1911census.co.uk will continue to operate as a PayAsYouGo website.
A census like no other – the most valuable new resource available to family historians
In case you haven’t used the 1911 Census recently, a quick reminder of why it is of such immense use to family historians:
It’s the first census where there is a form for every household rather than just a street-by-street summary: you get to see your ancestor’s own handwriting, and more information about your ancestors is recorded than ever before
Over 10 times larger than the 1901 census – because every household schedule has survived, there are 18 million images to view
Glorious technicolour images – it’s the first census to be scanned in colour and at ultra-high quality, making the original images much easier to read
More personal details to help you build your tree – the 1911 Census provides information that wasn’t recorded before: number of years married, children born to the marriage, children living and deceased. Often, your ancestors have made mistakes on the form which can give you even more clues to tracking down family members
It’s the most recent census to be released – the 1921 Census won’t be released until 2021, so this is your best chance to find recent (in some cases, still living!) relatives
Don’t just take our word for it, remind yourself by viewing sample images on the 1911census.co.uk website.
Subscribe to the 1911 Census, for the price of viewing just 15 records
