Hi Follow my instructions higher up the list - 1851 is hard to find. Click on the census collection when you've done that you'll seea tab at the top saying more, click on that and it appears on a list - it's very hidden Jacquie

It's just taken me ages to find it. Got there eventually and have found some of my relatives! If only I could have used it about 3 weeks ago, it would have saved me trawling through the Staffs 1851 census page by page as I had no idea where my relies were living!!
