Funny cause when i was researching my family years ago I was told that the beautiful handwriting i was looking at was more than likely that of a census officer as many would have been illiterate, so they did much of the writing. That is why so many surnames have been entered incorrectly, i.e. missing the "O", either that or they had taken the soup.

Well, I also checked their neighbours in the parish and they all have different handwriting.....so I guess they had a good teacher down the country

Found my maternal great grand partners and it was the mirror image of my writing and my grand mother's writing (she was born in 1926 so not included in either census)
SPOOKY!

Also my paternal great grand parent's had 2 servants - a maid and a 'nurse' - wish we had kept that tradition up!!

Yeah, it was posted earlier, or maybe the day before.
When I tried to get on the site, it timed out because of the number of users already on it.

I eventually got on it and it really rocks. My parents are learning about family that they did not even hear about as kids.

Go to the advanced search options and you can search people by "Illness". In the sub category you can search "Idiot" or "Lunatic". Theres heaps of them! And some married with perfectly good jobs!:D

Would be useful if they had more current census up. Could create an accurate family history and family tree.

Census details of anyone who might still be alive should never be released into the public domain.

As for family trees -theyre all based on the highly dubious assumption that all ones ancestors have been faithful to their spouses.

lol, mine too. Apparently neither of them could read or write however so I don't know how they managed that!

We have a really rare surname. It seems every generation only has one or two boys but a whole basketful of girls so its fascinating to see where they've all gone to.

So did mine, but don't get too excited, it can mean a lot of things. Like farm labourer or just anyone at all who called to the farm that day to do a bit of work or anything.
