As you may know, the 1901 census was recently published on the internet, by the public records office. The site was so busy that it was unable to function properly, and has been temporarily closed, whilst the capacity is increased. For more information about the 1901 census, please visit www.census.pro.gov.uk.

The 1891 census can be accessed at www.1891census.co.uk where it can also be downloaded for offline use on your computer.

The Leicester Online History Society have published the 1851 census. For more information, please visit their publications site.
