Family Tree  |  March 2011
BUMPER ISSUE!
This issue we celebrate the census, THE treasure-trove for finding your ancestors.
Where would we be without the census? Family history is certainly possible without it, but I find that the details on the census returns make it much more enjoyable, and quicker too, to start building up a branch of your tree. Searching through the historic census records lets you see an ancestor, usually in their home setting, with fellow family members coming and going through the decades, and with their ages, occupations and birth places too - a wealth of irresistible clues and leads for you to follow up.
Here we offer our advice to help you find family on the census, our insights to the censuses yet to be released and our tips on filling in your own census forms.
