Great to have these new counties on, and I’ve now found out who lived in my house in 1901. But it would appear that some records have been missed. Looking for my grandfather Allan Scott in Macclesfield, Cheshire no record was found. But he’s definitely there according to another family history website - birthplace (Newbury) and date correct, too.
This good news - but what has happened to the transcribing of the 1851 census? That seems to have ground to a halt, which is a great shame.
@Steve: the good news is that 1851 will start to flow through again soon and the entire census should be complete within the next few months.
