Only 9 years until the 1931 Scottish census is released!

Yup, you read that right! 

The 1931 census for England and Wales has not survived, but that for Scotland has. With the 1921 Scottish census a year late in its release, we are now just 9 years away from the release of the 1931 census by the National Records of Scotland (www.nrscotland.gov.uk). 

In the meatime, you can read more about the 1931 census at http://www4.histpop.org/ohpr/servlet/PageBrowser2?ResourceType=Census&ResourceType=Legislation&ResourceType=Essays&ResourceType=Registrar%20General&ResourceType=TNA&SearchTerms=1931%20scotland&simple=yes&path=Results/Census&active=yes&treestate=expandnew&titlepos=0&mno=243&tocstate=expandnew&tocseq=100&display=sections&display=tables&display=pagetitles&pageseq=first-nonblank

Happy St. Andrew's Day!

  1. And NRS Please note the American National Archives have already begun work on producing the 1960 Census for the US, for release in 2032, not starting the process in 2032.
