Digging in the 1921 census yesterday I realised that I knew two people who were born in the 19th century. One great-grandfather was born in 1889. I was 3 when he died, so my memories were vague. Another great-grandfather was born in 1896. He lived until I was 20.

How about you? Did you know anyone who was born in the 19th century?

The 1921 census is here (and the servers haven't melted yet). I've just found a great-grandmother at home with her parents (which was slightly disappointing as I had hoped to find her working as a domestic servant in London).

The 1922 census data is released this time next week. So it's probably a good time to make a list of the people you hope to find there. So you can hit the ground running next Thursday.

I'm wondering if this should be a group rather than a page.

Who fancies doing a little bit of light genealogy while we're all confined to our homes?
