Something Anna Donaldsonmight have missed in his latest review of were these effectively unmoderated comments using internet.

I have been told no records too. Reading write-up I realise I am too new to get on yet. Could this not be said instead of ‘not found’ which is confusing and suggests record not made

Very disappointing. I am unable to trace any of my ancestors, as they all lived in the North.

I have been reseaching my family for over 25 yeas and have document to prove that they were in Norfolk at the time of the 1911 census but no matter what input I use the same result NOT ONE could you tell me why are all the records on your Site?

I am not complaining but why is this available before the 100 year cut off?

Noel - I found that if you just put a comma in the last name field, you get round the transcription problem.

I did not have time to test the 1911 site until the very end and I would now like to complete the feedback form.
However, by the time I had used the site, I could no longer find a link to the feed back form.

Hello and many thanks for the chance to use the beta 1911 site. I knocked down some brickwalls and confirmed other family. Deal in Kent is my dream as it was and is missing from the 1901 census (if anyone ever finds a pile of paperwork about Deal residents 1901 please get it to the National Archives? I’m sure no questions will be asked!) Thanks for this blog it has answered one of my questions to the team about our records, in that they will be there waiting at the launch. Can we have Forename/birthplace /age search please for those married females we have lost since 1901. Thanks again for the invite.

DEAR
1911 TEAM

PLEASE EXCUSE UPPER CASE WRITING EYESIGHT PROBS AND THE JERKS, DUE TO MY MS.

I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU DIDN’T PUBLISH, WAS I NOT TELLING THE TRUTH, ANYWAY LET’S FORGET IT THE CHARGES ARE NOT DOWN TO YOU.
I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK WITH THE OPENING OF THE 1911 CENSUS WHENEVER IT HAPPENS IN 2009.
REGARDS
ALAN.

Thank you for the opportunity to use this site. I’ve been lucky enough to find some people but not others, even when the relevant county was available. As mentioned before I agree with another of your contributors Noel, that Ancestry type access would be most beneficial.

Hope it won’t be too long before the full edition comes out. Got to watch the costs though!

Keep up the good work. Happy and productive New Year
