Last week saw the release of the 1950 United States of America federal census, causing lots of excitement over the water! The census was released by NARA at https://1950census.archives.gov/, although not in a fully searchable format.
Records suppliers Ancestry and MyHeritage have now released searchable indexes for two states, Wyoming and Delaware. To find out more, visit the following links:
MyHeritage https://www.myheritage.com/research/collection-11006/1950-united-states-federal-census and https://blog.myheritage.com/2022/04/now-live-the-1950-u-s-census-index-for-wyoming-and-delaware/
Ancestry https://www.ancestry.com/corporate/blog/wait-over-1950-us-census-now-available-ancestry-powering-countless-new-discoveries and https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/collections/62308/
This will obviously be an ongoing roll out, as and when states indexes become available. If your Scottish or Irish ancestors emigrated, hopefully this should help!
