Does anyone know why they've removed access? I'm so glad I found it was available through GR and printed off most of the information when it was online! Thanks guys! Natalie

What happens to those of us who still have credits left? We cant use them for the 1851??

It wasn't released, so if you bought credits for Ancestry, you'll have to wait until it is released, or use them on the other censuses. People were getting in through a 'back-door'. It is still ''coming soon''

They've taken it down. You will only get access to 1861-1901, not 1851, until they release it properly.

Change the 61 in the address bar to 51 and it will get you to the 1851 census. nell
