1901 Census of the Workhouse

It's been a while but having had three weeks' holiday it was almost mid July before I could start this one.

Almost 1000 residents of the Workhouse are now transcribed and available on
www.c5d.co.uk/workhouse1901.htm

I shall now begin the nest 1000 who were there in 1911


Good Luck to all

Certificates Holidays

I shall be on my annual holiday from 17th June to 5th July 2010.

Orders submitted prior to 17th June will be actioned on a best endeavours basis. Whilst I shall do my best, I can't promise that they'll be back before I go.

Orders received after 16th June will be actioned on my return.

Thanks for being understanding

7th June 2010 Workhouse Censuses

The Workhouse censuses are now complete from 1841-1891 on my web pages.

I do hope someone finds them of interest.

1901 & 1911 will not be completed before my holiday

21st May: Ashton Under Lyne Barracks

These census entries are now complete for 1851-1911.

They are available at www.c5d.co.uk/ladysmithbarracks.htm

My next project is the Workhouse in Ashton Under Lyne

So far 1841, 1851 & 1871 are available. In 1861 the enumerator used just the initials of the residents !!

21st May 2010; Back to Normal

The ONS are now claiming to be back to normal.

Only time will tell of course, but hopefully certificates should now start to arrive within the ususal five days.

Let's hope for the best

10th May 2010: Ashton Under Lyne Barracks Censuses

I've started another section on the Hurst web site;

The censuses for the Barracks on Mossley Road. So far 1851-1891 are done though not 1881 as it's already up there for free on the LDS site.

There is no 1841 census though as it wasn't built till 1843 !

I guess a month should see the completion of 1901 and 1911.

www.c5d.co.uk/ladysmithbarracks.htm is the web page.

Hopefully someone will find this useful

10th May 2010 Another Week On:- No progress

Still no progress on the waiting time for certificates I'm afraid.

The ONS are still quoting 12 working days yet hope to be back to normal from next week !

Believe it when it actually happens.
