I must remember to try this I may even print it.I am sure it is helping many many people
Thank you again!!!

Nudged - because it is fun to try and find them :-)

Just wanted to add that I've had lots of fun searching for free on the 1911 census, all thanks to Jonesey.

Even when you think that a family is untraceable......... don't be put off! After 10 minutes I tied a family (not using their original surname) down for someone, here's the thread;

http://www.genesreunited.com/boards.page/board/records_office/thread/1261993

As we all know the untraceable are there it's just taking the time and looking at things from a different angle.

Thanks again Jonesey for all your clever tips!

Brilliant. Off to try it.

Things can change a bit if you have access to Ancestry's 1911 summary books.
Here's a look up for McCann in Wigan - there're several hits, but mine is at his 1901 addy, so no worries:

1911 England Census Summary Books

NB Ancestry always(?) mistranscribe the RD # - for Wigan it should be 458.


You can do a free look up at http://www.1911census.co.uk/
Take the full person search, then take advanced fields.
Now I just look up the census ref:

7 results found. You searched for:

An alternative to a look up at the NA is to hope some idiot has looked up John Smith in rd1, rd2, ..., rd641, and noted where they came from.
