Title: 1881 Census entry for Queen Victoria, Windsor Castle
Post by: Nick on April 01, 2009, 10:13:24 PM
I have the 1881 Census entry for Queen Victoria, it makes interesting reading.
I didn't realise it took so many people to look after one person !

If anyone would like a copy (MS Word), PM me.

Hi Nick. Obviously you have the 1881 census on the 14 CDs. Do you use the viewer that comes with it or a different package?

Cheers...Jon

Hi Jon,

I just use the bog standard viewer that comes with the package.

I remember when the CD's were released someone knocked up a piece of software which would allow you to search by occupation. It cost something like 140 UKP. Very handy if you come from a family of coal miners in South Wales, NOT.

I remember the viewer being available for ludicrous money. Can't remember the programme name though. I did read that the 1901 census has thousands of people with the surname DITTO though. That's what happens when a government sub contracts to the lowest bidder.
