Hi All First of all my thanks to Jeremy for allowing himslef to be persuaded to look after the list while I've been walkabout. The ongoing 1871 Sheffield census name index has just been updated with another 6,500+ name details. Theres now over 31,000 name entries in the index. Access it on the Genuki website at http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/Census/Sheffield1871/ Thanks to those of you who have sent suggestions regarding the index. The homepage text has now been amended to take in some of the suggestions. Other suggestions are being carried out and will be added later. Please keep sending your suggestions and advice, it all makes for a more informative webpage / index. As you will see by the number of entries added so far, the index is plodding along nicely considering the small number of transcribers participating in its creation. If anyone has access to the available 1871 census / fiche and is willing to offer assistance towards completing the index by transcribing for just a couple or so hours a week, please get in touch with me. Every little bit of transcribing helps no matter how much or how little you are able to do. Your help will be greatly appreciated by all who will use the index.
