This just NOT true at all If you already have an account with FindMyPast then you can use this login on the 1911 census page. Otherwise if you register on the 1911 Beta site you will get an invitational email. Due to the debacle of the release of the 1901 census they are taking a much better approach to the release by limiting the load on their servers intially to test the system and guage reaction and correct some errors. They will have built in the prous nature of the internet and expect a gradual increase in users as the word gets out as it surely will in such a site. As an "uninvited" user i have reported several transcription errors, one of which is pretty bad in that many surnames beginning with Mc are not indexed correctly as Mc, instead the root is indexed and the Mc added as a second forename. If you think this is bunkum then search for a McLoughlin in Luton, Beds....there are none according to the index.....but my grandfather is there under Loughlin, and the schedule form is very distinctly correct as McLoughlin. When they replied to my report they did not threaten to prosecute nor persecute not penalise me for my uninvited access..to the contrary they were grateful for my comments. There is a lot of scaremongering by the "invited" as they seem not to want to share their bounty or maybe they feel "exclusive" and somehow special.....strange thing is that most of those that doth protest so much all over the net seem to have these "hide my identity" generic email addresses such as hotmail, gmail or yahoo.... -------- Original Message -------- > Anton Mcloughlin wrote: > >> For a short period the 1911 census is in Beta version at >> http://snip >> > > It is invite only and *not* for the use of all, irrespective of the > fact the URL may be available from other sources.
