Subject: Advise required Hi List Like most other lister's, I have a mystery. Can anyone advise? Searching for Sarah Evelyn Dawson b:1905 Kirton, Lincolnshire and Emily Bona Dawson b:1908 Sheffield. They came from Linc's about 1906. Lived at Park Hill area. They both went into service in Sheffield area in 1922 at the death of their mother Rose Hannah. Sarah worked for a doctor for many years. Emily in Sheffield and occasional summers near Hyde Park, London was a companion to other younger children. (Maybe same family name Dawson or Belcher ????) It may be possible to follow Sarah Evelyn in 1921,1931,1941 census. Emily married in 1928 and moved to USA. When should 1921-41 census be viewable ???(Sarah stayed in England). Please note! I have information from 1928 for Emily Bona Dawson, (Just need to view 1921 census for Emily.) Hope Some Kind Person can advise me. Keith (Canada)
Keith, You're in for a long wait I'm afraid. Censuses have been held every 10 years since 1801 (except 1941) but only those since 1841 are available. The 1841 return is not so helpful as the later ones. The latest census available is the 1901 as returns are only released after 100 years. The 1911 Census will be the next to be released, probably online in 2012 so the 1921 won't be until 2022, the 1931 until 2032 and the 1941 until 2042, assuming were all still around then. It will be work for our children to continue.
