Has anyone else noticed that during one of the F&F "stock shots" there's a large bound ledger-type book with the wording "1921 Census" on the spine? (And I have rewound my Sky+ several times to check this!)
Wonder what that's all about?
I posted a similar query on 10 August on the previous Heir Hunters thread.
I might have been seeing things but on yesterday's programme (which is obviously a repeat, one of the items was doing research to find the heirs to a £250,000 estate and finding out that there literally were no heirs), I thought I saw a file on a shelf marked 1921 census. Was I seeing things Neil, or do you have access to the 1921 census already?
Nick29 though the book might have contained stats from the census as only personal details are subject to the 100 year rule, or it was a 1921 US census.
Neil Fraser from Fraser and Fraser said that the US census was 1920 and when I queried the book again just replied, without further comment "The book does say 1921 census on it".
I have no idea whether F & F have access to later census, it would certainly seem so as in one of the programmes I recorded last week and watched last night, someone in the office said that from census they had found the siblings of the deceased. As his/her parents hadn't married until about 1921 I found that telling too.
