Hi KGarrrad, I e-mailed FindMyPast about the 1911 census, there reply was that no longer have the rights and it is back with the NA

Hi MargP,

Regardless of the actual legal standing of the copyright issues of the 1911 census, we have to abide by the guidelines set by the RootsChat team.

They may be right; they may be wrong; I think they are just being cautious! ;D
But, them's the rules!! ;D

I totally agree KG, I just wondered if the issue was checked regularly, or will this be the case for the foreseeable future???

Family History is a Pandora's box if you don't like what you see find a new hobby,only concentrate on the proven facts and not the facts you think you know.

All RootsChat policies and guidance are kept under regular review.  The Guidance on the 1911 census issue was updated in September - see here:  http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,355484.0.html
Although originally posted in 2009, it has been changed over time to reflect the current situation.  Advice from management is still that no look-up requests are allowed for the 1911 England & Wales Census.

Since RootsChat is privately owned and administered, the owners have developed policies and guidelines to protect the site and themselves.  As always, the moderating team ask that RootsChat members respect these policies. 

Best wishes
