1939 National Register

[Selina]

A friend has told me that she fairly recently read in a familily history magazine (she can't recall which as she reads several), that one of the genealogy sites is preparing the 1939 National Register to put online.  She can't remember which site!

Has anyone else read about this and knows a bit more please?

That extract is dated 16 Feb 2010, from when access to the data, for deceased people has been available at a cost of £42.

I'm not sure what you're implying, Stan

I only mean that that link cannot be referring to a recent announcement in a family history magazine that one of the genealogy sites is preparing the 1939 National Register to put online.

I gathered that my friend had read about this within the last month but I do wonder if the article/whatever was referring to something else as would have thought someone would have posted about it on RootsChat already if it was the 1939.

I did get two records during the initial 'free' period before they started charging £42 which were very helpful.

It would be a really useful source of information if it does get online so will keep hoping!

Interesting that FindMyPast can put a 1939 list on line, but we can't view 1921 census yet.

Thanks stonechat.   Great news!
