Any 1921 census updates?
« on: Thursday 11 May 17 20:13 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any news/rumours on when the 1921 census will start to be scanned and indexed? Given the size of the documents I would have thought they would be starting fairly soon for a January 2022 release date.

Also, has anyone written to whoever holds this census for information on a person living at a particular address if they provided evidence of an ancestor's death? I think this was done by someone in 2009 for the 1911 census.

Thanks for the link, Carol. I was only just thinking about the 1921 census's availability the other day - probably because I seem to be at a standstill with my own research, hitting seemingly un-breakdownable brickwalls wherever I turn. Though, come to think of it,  most of those are way back in time so the 1921 wouldn't be much use anyway! I think I must have been seeking a distraction.  ::)

Only 5 years to go !

Regarding the 1926 census of Ireland I would not get any hopes up. There has been no news regarding it and the government has other priorities at the moment.
