To all:- Gordon's memo is terrific news! It could not be sent on a better date -- my father's birthdate was July 13, 1891 and I am looking forward to viewing my FARQUHAR family, as are all researchers of any family. Muriel M.

Watts Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 8:34 AM Subject: RE: 1911 Census microfilm availability Hi Gordon, I can now give you a quick update on the microform situation. As part of making the 1911 census available, we are planning to have inter-library loan services as well as make the microform available for purchase. Overall, the process for loan and purchase will be similar to what we did for the 1906 census. Our expectation is that the microform copies will be available sometime after the launch of the online version as there are a number of processing procedures that need to be completed. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to contact us. We should be able to provide more precise information in the coming weeks. I hope that you are having a nice summer, Gabrielle.
