Find My Past have just announced that the 1939 register will be available on from Monday 2nd November 2015. Records will be available to purchase for £6.95 per household, or £24.95 for a 5 household bundle (£4.99 per household). It seems a bit pricey but they did put a lot of work into it. Findmypast subscribers will be entitled to a discount. Happy Hunting everyone.

I was wondering about that discount but did not see anything on the announcement I received from FMP. FindMypast also got the 1911 census contract and set up a company to market and charge for this. The charges were on a piece basis with various discounts for quantity. I think that 1911-only site is only now being wound up. But very soon FMP added 1911 census access to their normal subscriptions, as have other genealogy data providers. What I wonder is how long it will be before FMP add the 1939 exercise to their normal FMP data subscription. As a potential customer of that data, I am happy not to buy access in a piecemeal fashion and await the merge into the full subscription.
