Talking of history ,,next Monday the 1939 census is comming out .. I will love that ..like to see how my family in history progressed through their lives ...

seems and I only just learnt this today, that there was no .. 1931 or 1942 taken (war)
So if my facts are correct . After the 1939 , the next set of online data will be released for 1951 ..
But 1939 first .. See what your great greats are up,to .. There were a lot of upstairs and downstairs you know relationships !

I *think* that there was a 1931 census but all the data was lost in a warehouse fire. The 1939 census was a brief snapshot, with limited information, and was mainly done to gather the necessary information to produce ration cards for everyone. People who moved after the census was taken were warned to send forwarding details to the authorities or starve.....

None of which alters the fact that we need to #hangbates

I was nearly impressed with your knowledge for a moment there @jay hay-char
You are right about the 1931 census .. No 1941 because of the war ..

Then I saw #hangbates ..

My father started researching our family on his side some years ago, when he became a grandparent. The main thing he managed to discover was a shepherd from Yorkshire, in Seventeen something, who got six months for punching a gentleman We've been fighting the Class War ever since.

My mum's family is vair posh, and includes the second wife of Sir Charles Hallé (of Orchestra fame) and a distant link to Borwick's Baking Powder. Mind you, they're Trade, so not really out of the top drawer

@jay hay-char
Love family research ..
It's true harsh punishments were given out for very simple things .. Well punching , they must of come out of the pub in 1700's
:p:p:p

I found some greats who had stolen coonies (rabbits ) for the pot .. Big fines so they still went without ..

I have a claim to fame lol sport lol golfer !!!!

Now #bates has baby :D I have no idea why that was in red .. Spooky lol lol

I've heard that the production company have shot some exterior scenes at Wormwood Scrubs and that one of the sets at their studios is a very convincing mock-up of an execution chamber..... #hangbates
