Hello: Can anyone on the list tell me the "official dates" of the census for England? I know the years but would like to have something more specific. Also, how often was the census actually taken on the prescribed date? Always, sometimes, hardly ever? When I read the UK census for England at the Family History Library in Salt Lake I also found the enumeration date. Now, I'm reading the UK census for England on Ancestry and can't remember where I found the date. I'd appreciate some guidance on this one too, please. And, yes, I realize that the "official date" and the actual date may vary, at least that's my experience with Canada and US records. Oh, one more question: Is it OK to post surnames I'm searching here? Many thanks, Marina Dececo
