The 1911 Census For England & Wales
Use the census to search for your ancestors

The 1911 census is a record of everyone who lived in England and Wales in 1911. It provides a unique snapshot of the lives of your ancestors. 1911census.co.uk brings this vast resource to you online, so that you can search the census simply and quickly to discover how your family lived in the past.

1911census.co.uk is the official census website, in association with The National Archives.

Having found your ancestors in the 1911 census, perhaps with the help of the findmypast.com BMD indexes (new window), you'll no doubt want to discover who their parents and grandparents were, where they lived, their occupations, and who their siblings were etc.

To go back further you'll need the help of the 1841-1901 censuses. Findmypast.com holds a set of accurately transcribed England and Wales censuses, along with high quality census images. On the findmypast.com censuses you can search for either a person or an address.
