Use the controls above to select the census return data you wish to see.   Parishes, census years and birth parishes will only appear in the lists where data is available.

The birth parish filter excludes people born in the parish and actually living in the parish at the time of the census -   use the 'Parish' selector to see those individuals.  This makes it possible to search more effectively for 'strays'.

You may use a '*' for a wildcard in the name to be searched for, e.g. 'Sm*' will return individuals with surnames starting with Sm, e.g. Smith, Small, Smart etc.

Remember that this browser only shows information contained in the OPC database, there may be census return data available on other sites, only available from the individual parish pages.

Please email us with your census transcripts (complete enumeration districts or parishes only please) to add to the database - many thanks
