In a previous life on this forum I used to be known as Uncle Michael but I seem not to be able to log on, but that's not the reason for this post. I know a few of you are interested in family history. If you didn't know the 1911 census is now available on line on "Find my Past" website. Sorry still don't know how to do links Michael

OOPs,spend spend spend already!!The surname search is pants,the wildcard option does not work and there is no soundex option.However the results show how many children a couple have had and how many of them have died,it also shows how long a couple have been married.

Been off line for ages due to computer blow up and been itching to get at the 1911 cencus and have spent the day and an arm and leg uncovering more skeletons in the family closet! Does anyone know if it's just on the "Findmypast" site for now,cos it's blummin expensive,I'll be bankrupt at this rate,30 credits to view a copy which is about £3.50
