Jeri
Brown, Senior Consultant with Ancestry.ca, has written to me to make
sure that everyone understands that -
“Under the terms of the partnership with
Library and Archives Canada, Canadians will be able to access the 1921 Census
of Canada images free of charge through the Ancestry.ca website. If you
currently do not have an account or registered login with Ancestry.ca, you will
be prompted to register (for free) to access the images. Registration requires
the entry of a name and email address only. As the images are free for
Canadians only, those attempting to access the 1921 Census via the other sites
(ie: Ancestry.com, Ancestry.co.uk, etc…), will be prompted to sign up for a
14-day free trial”.
Meanwhile, how is
everyone finding the census? Is it easy to work with? Any problems?
I have heard from
some people that the census itself is rather “marked up” and some writing is difficult
to read, and that the names are difficult to decipher.
Other people have said
that they have had no problems, everything has gone as planned, and that they found
the people they were looking for, without delay.
Remember, the "every name index" will be available in 2 -3 months on Ancestry.ca
