Hi gang, I should have included the information provided by Christina. Thanks Christina. http://www.familysearch.org/ I am informed these files are normally open to members. I wasn't sure what this was so I took a look. It seems that the Familysearch.org website is making the 1880 American and 1881 Canadian censuses available as a part of Family History month. These are also on CD for purchase. Also available the 1881 British Census. Slan go foill, do chara Donald O'Collaugh Kelly --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
