I believe that the Ontario 1851/2 census has been lost, and that the 1861 and 1871 have not yet been transcribed. In case some Lister has access to some other source, I would appreciate a lookup by any Lister who has easy access to census info at no incremental cost and could find the following family in any or all of these three censuses: * Oro Twp, Simcoe County: * Duncan McNabb, born Islay about 1804 (died Apr 1871) * Catherine [MS unknown], born Islay about 1807 (died 1888) * Several children born Islay until 1836 * Several children born Oro 1837 to 1854 With thanks in advance...

Ken You might try the pilot LDS site. I have it bookmarked as (HTTP://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=allCollections; r=0). It has the 1851/61/71 census information indexed by name only. Sorry, no images. It also includes B/D/M databases and quite a number of US census lists, listed by state. Hope it is of help to you.
