A final update on the 1911 census for England and Wales - the release is now complete with the addition of 135,000 soldiers records based at 288 military establishments overseas, and around 36,000 naval personnel on 147 Royal Navy ships overseas. In addition, records for the Channel Islands of Alderney, Guernsey, Jersey and Sark, and the Isle of Man have been placed online.
If your Scottish ancestor was in the forces in 1911, it's worth having a look.
