Hi everybody: I have seen very little mention of how we want to see the Census of 1911 (and 1906) and subsequent ones handled when they are made available. I would like to draw your attention to activities in Great Britain and the United States where plans to have Census information on line. For the USA refer to web site: http://www.myfamilyinc.com/pressroom/censusannounced.htm and for the United Kingdom: http://www.pro.gov.uk/census/update1.htm We should be doing some serious thinking of what to do with the Census after we win the battle for its release. Complicated data bases such as the Census are not put into usable online form without a good deal of testing etc. We should also consider the thought that these censuses provide an excellent source for serious migration studies as well as essential background for meaningful family history research. We should not relax our efforts to get the Census released but we should also be prepared for that release and how the data should be prepared for easy access.
