I truly wish I had that opportunity but my parents are long gone :-( My dad only had one brother and he passed away in 2006, my mum an only child due to WW1 So as you say, if you have the opportunity, do it today or as soon as you can Oddly yesterday I came across a short video I did not know existed, it was taken in 1992 at a 2nd birthday party of a friends child, there I am (with hair :-) and two of my then young children, wonderful to see I didn't even know a video had been taken so a great find Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 21/03/2014 18:53, Louis Mills wrote: > In that same vein, Nivard, one of the things I value most is the audio tape of my mother talking about her youth in London and the World War II bombings she experienced.

You've had all the replies to your question, but just to be pedantic, the usual plural for census is censuses. Censi, though correct for its Latin derivation, is never if ever used.

The censuses were held on the following dates: Sunday 3 April 1881 Sunday 5 April 1891 Sunday 31 March 1901 There are several sites which give all the census dates. FindMyPast is one of them which gives them on the page for the relevant census -- Connie http://oursalmons.wordpress.com/

1881 census was taken on the 3rd April.

in doing some research it has become necessary to know the actual dates that the 1881 , 1891 and 1901 censi were held on . Could some kind and knowledgeable sole pls enlighten me . T I A . Mick Wilson .

Yes it seems a pity that so few will be able to listen to them I suspect a little shove in the direction of this century may be in order for some archives <g> Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 21/03/2014 14:08, Connie wrote: > On 21/03/2014 13:14, Nivard Ovington wrote: >> So got there in the end, but I feel its a pity these interviews are not >> available to all > > Other counties are the same.

Sorry my post seems to have caused so much confusion.I might add that it is possible to listen to Radio Leicester on the BBC iPlayer and there are some recent episodes of current programmes available.

Just a quick follow up Bill pointed out it is listed under Transportation in the basic search I had thought it was one I could listen to online but it appears that you have to visit the records office in Wigston (and give a weeks notice etc) So got there in the end, but I feel its a pity these interviews are not available to all Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 21/03/2014 07:00, michael wilson wrote: > Nivard and others : -the oral recording of my grandfather Thomas Haines talking about the Great Central Railway can be found at www.le.ac.uk/emoha/ > Mick Wilson . > Sorry about the delay .
