	The youngest person that I have yet found on a census was Florence Mary Barnett in Sculcoates, East Yorkshire, who on the 1911 census form completed by her father Henry (Harry) is recorded as being just 4 hours old. Has anyone found anyone younger?

	Jan, I am surprised that his father could concentrate sufficiently to fill out the form so promptly. Good on yer Mr George Henry Howard, top marks for efficiency. Mind you not much else to do in Brearley Street at that time of night. ;-) P.S. you could be right about Arthur being 4 months old. :-(

	The twins Mary and Jane Ross in Bolton most certainly are now in the lead and will take some beating.
