1911 Census going to be on Ancestry!!!

Post by grangers14 »

We want the 1911 census!' was the clear and resounding message. “We're fed up with paying such high fees for access to this information - when are we getting the 1911 census?” came the unmistakable cry from our members. And so it is today that we are delighted to be able to confirm the full and complete England and Wales 1911 Census is coming to Ancestry.
Starting with an initial launch of content later this year and finishing up sometime in 2011; all the convenience, powerful intuitive search, product innovation and value you've come to expect will also apply to the latest, largest and most significant England and Wales census resource yet.

We will be launching the first section of the 1911 England and Wales Census content before the end of the year, with the complete Enumerators Summary Books, after which we will begin the process of putting the Householder Schedules online in sections, completing in 2011.
We haven't yet finalised our delivery timetable but we will keep all our members fully updated throughout the process of making the 1911 census available on our site.
@Vivian - the 1911 Census will be available to all of our membership package holders - UK Essentials, Premium and Worldwide.
Thank you all for your comments - we're really excited as well!

Oh and this :o

TheGenealogist is proud to announce that the 1911 census will be available on our website.

From our customer survey we asked you what you would like to see in a new premium subscription, the most popular resource requested was the 1911 census and after much negotiation we can finally announce that it will soon be available to all Diamond Subscribers.

See our big news story below.

This is just one of the premium resources that will be launched over the next few months and to celebrate the 1911 announcement readers can save £20 on the £149.45 Diamond subscription. This is only for a limited period, so grab it while you can.

The project will start late 2010, with an anticipated completion date of summer 2011.

What is interesting is that they have both paid for the images but seems to be doing thier own transcription.

Genes Reunited purchaed both images and index and that is why they could roll it out so quick.
