1841 Census now up.  Ive also done some research on the first family listed in the village.  Im not related to them at all but its still to hard to know when to stop looking for information.  Everyone of them is interesting.

Glad to be making a start on the Sotby project.

Transcribing the Census from 1841-1891 will be my first challenge.  So far it is fascinating to see which families have been in the Village for decades.  The fact my Weatherhog family were there for so long is what got my interest in wanting to know more.  Lucky for me I guess that the village stayed relatively small over the decades.

Still not sure how to set it all up so I will have to do some research on other One Place studies for ideas/insperation.
