As anyone heard recently on the news that the powers that be are talking of releasing census information for 50 years and not 100 years as we have now. Or did I imagine this? Pat

Hi Pat Yes, there was something similar mentioned yesterday on the GenesConnected homepage under Genealogy News. It is now necessary to click on more news to find the relevant article. It mentions 30 years! The reference is to the Big Conversation but have not been able to find any more info on that site so far. Lynne, New Zealand

Stupid me. That will teach me to be more observant and look more closely at the GC homepage news.

I need the 1921 census. although i'd be quite happy with the 1911 as this may help me also.
