Greetings All.

I forward for your interest the following message relating to the Online
1901 Census of England and Wales. There is a number of interesting
items contained in the meeting minutes referred to. I found most
interesting the following facts.

There have been approximately 17 million free services, and 2.3 million
paid services provided by the site to users during the testing phase. Of
these paid services, fully transcribed details were the most requested,
followed by images and then schedule requests. The overwhelming majority
of those who access the site come from the United Kingdom, followed by
CANADA and Australia and then the United States.

Happy Hunting.
