Hello All

I need some advise please, I have just used 50 credits in less the 15 minuets not sure of the best way to use 1911 Census, credits can be lost if you not 100% certain of the person you are looking for. Is there any other way to trace family in 1911.

Thank you all in advance

Poppy x :-)

I would advise that you ask someone here to do the look-up for you. The people here are happy and willing to do so.

Hi Poppy

Do you have any names, ages and an idea where they were born or living in 1911 ?

Poppie

Firstly you can search the official 1911 census for free, which may give you some idea if the person you want is on there.Have a go it wont cost you anything.

Link to the 1911 census.

http://www.1911census.co.uk/.

If you then see names which maybe the ones you want you can always ask for a look up, some of us have a subscription to the 1911 census on FMP,
Or even, if you give some names etc we can have a look anyway,dont buy credits on GR as you say you have used a lot.

Even if William was in the Forces, he should appear on 1911 census.

Perhaps he's mistranscribed? Scott would be the obvious alternative.............
