1841 Aberdeenshire Census Project

Posted by Michelle Jeffery <mmjeffery@cyber-quest.com> on Sun, 09 Feb 2003

Hello!
I am excited to announce the launch of the Aberdeenshire
Free Census project. This is part of the larger UK Free
Census Project - an Internet-based 'free-to-view' database
that will enable researchers to view details of UK Censuses
between the years 1841 and 1891, especially the ability to
search by surname across census years and counties. I am
the county coordinator and am sending out an appeal for
transcribers for all Aberdeenshire parishes.

All you need to take part is a computer and access to a
microfilm or microfiche reader. We supply everything else
including the film/fiche and the software. This project is a
global on-line venture designed for ordinary family historians
wherever they are, who would like to make a contribution to
our great hobby.

If you are interested in learning more, please
contact me, Michelle Jeffery, at mmjeffery@cyber-quest.com

An overview of the UK FreeCEN project can be found

FreeCEN project can be found at

Thank you,

Michelle Jeffery
Aberdeenshire Coordinator
