Hello folks The whole of the Wiltshire 1841 (and a lot more) is available on http://www.pope-genealogy.me.uk/nwocp.htm This web site has lots of other things on it, including a neat list of the parishes missing from the 1841. I might also point out that the census taken between 1801 & 1831 were organised on the basis of the ancient Hundreds of Wiltshire. From 1841 onwards they were based on the new Registration Districts. For comparison, the 1841 returns were shuffled round till they reflected the 1831 and other census returns. From 1851 on they didn't bother doing that. Rgds Michael
