Here's what it says on the site: What is the 1939 Register? Simply put, it’s the most comprehensive survey ever taken of the civil population of England and Wales. Taken at the outbreak of war in September 1939, it contains the personal details of *41 million people*, the details the government needed to issue identity cards, ration books and, in post-war Britain, establish the NHS. How do I search the register? From*Monday 2^nd November*, it will be*free*to search the register and to preview the transcript that includes the person’s*name*,*year of birth*,*town*and*county*of residence. In addition, you’ll be able to see how many other people lived in the house at the time and how many of them are closed due to being younger than 100 years old and still alive. This will help you to confirm if you’ve found the right person and then you can choose to unlock the record. Unlocking will give you all of the additional information such as*address*,*dates of birth*,*occupations*and*marital statuses*of everyone that lived there, plus*maps*,*newspapers*and exclusive*photos*of the time. So you can search for free, then if there's anything you want to check, you can pay £6.95 per household. Discounts are available Georgina 10821-- Georgina Colwell www.musicair.co.uk
