Thank you Tony, I have had a great afternoon tracking down some elusive family members in the 1841 census - now to enter them onto My Ancestors.

Just wish the bank holidays weekends would coincide with ours overseas! What with the time difference it's tricky taking advantage of these freebies and then I got side tracked by a long standing brick wall. I should have spent a bit more time on the 1841 census, it's one I tend to forget due to its lack of detail.
 
Ahem, Scotland doesn't have the same public hols as the other countries in the United Kingdom. Business as usual today north of the border.
