This new feature allows you to pin down your ancestors to properties on a contemporary map at the time of the census in 1911. With this feature, family historians are able to walk the streets where their ancestors lived, as not only can it be accessed on a computer but also on the move, on a mobile phone.
This new tool makes it easier to link census records to properties, and complements the georeferenced Lloyd George Domesday Survey and Tithe records that are already available on TheGenealogist’s Map Explorer™.
For the first time, the properties recorded in the 1911 Census can now be matched with georeferenced mapping to show where our English or Welsh ancestors had lived at the time of the census taken on the night of the 2 April 1911. The majority of London can be seen all the way down to property level, while the rest of the country will identify down to the parish, road or street.
