Online census links generations

Madam, – The 1901 Census was recently placed online in digital format and it complements the 1911 version. This represents a wonderful investment in our history and works out at about €1 per individual recorded.

If there is a better way of collectively engaging old and young in using the internet I have yet to see it. The project has given me fascinating and precise insight into my family history.

Many thanks to all those who delivered this rich and wonderful information. – Yours, etc,
