I have yet to find proof that any of the actual forms survived. I am still researching it and waiting for answers. As it was cancelled before it was really tested, as there was so much opposition, I would suspect that most were destroyed. <br />Once I find out more, and can answer a few more questions, I will post more about it.<br />Crissoulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10148084999701286044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099050778163931493.post-65779631937910860602016-08-12T19:48:55.732+10:002016-08-12T19:48:55.732+10:00Fascinating I had never heard of the War Census. ...Fascinating I had never heard of the War Census. What department actually took the census? Am I correct in assuming that the aboriginal portion of the census survived but we are not sure if other portions of the census survived. Very intriguing.

It's certainly not going to affect anyone to have their details released after all that time. Where would we be without Census from Ireland, England, etc. ?<br />Crissoulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10148084999701286044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099050778163931493.post-73438724407055286512016-08-08T16:27:26.002+10:002016-08-08T16:27:26.002+10:00Very interesting post Chris, I didn't know abo...Very interesting post Chris, I didn't know about these records either.

I haven't uncovered them as yet. I wonder if they were destroyed, a lot of people would have hoped so.Crissoulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10148084999701286044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099050778163931493.post-74131176107540802382016-08-07T17:05:02.156+10:002016-08-07T17:05:02.156+10:00Thanks for the info Chris.
