Do you have someone in your family that you just can't find in the 1871 census? Yes ok ... we all have them! How about someone that may have been in the Navy? If so there was a possibility that they were away when the census was taken, but thankfully they were still enumerated when the census was taken.
Now produced on CD-ROM for the first time is the '1871 Census of the Royal Navy at Sea and Ports Abroad'.
