Hi I am writing to provide an update on the 1861 census project. One further piece has been uploaded to the on line database and is now searchable for free on the main Freecen site at http://www.freecen.org.uk This is piece: RG09/1219 West Wymer covering the parish of Heigham This means that there are now 408,098 (97.4%) 1861 Norfolk census records available to search free on line. Many thanks to John Seakins, Rosemarie Forrest, without their help this information would not be available. If you would like to help with making more information available please contact me on bandys@worldonline.co.uk <mailto:bandys@worldonline.co.uk>. Please remember that spelling was not standard in 1861 so you may need to be a little imaginative with some of your searches. We have to provide a transcript of what the enumerator wrote not what we think he meant. Please see the main Freecen site or my website (see my signature for a link) for details of which pieces are on line. Hope this helps you in your research.
