I, too, have a list of them on a post-it note right beside the computer. Comes in handy when you have a child's age in months or, better still, weeks. |

I stand corrected Margaret! I have a list of them all written down in the back of my notebook but I only ever need to worry about the detail if I think someone may have been born very close to the date of the census. The only one to remember is the 1841 as it's such a different date. |

Sorry to be a nit-picker but 1851 was 30 March. |

Apart from the 1841 which was taken at the beginning of June all the rest were taken in that week beginning 31 March and ending 7 April. |

I do apologise. My reference was wrong. It was the night of 31 March 1901. So sorry. |
