Changes

British Army personnel in India, together with their families appeared for the first time in an England and Wales Census in 1911. The 1911 Census is available on the pay websites [[findmypast]], Ancestry and perhaps other pay sites. This [http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/browse/r/h/C90811 National Archives] catalogue entry shows the regiments that were included in the 1911 Census. The items (17 in total) are RG 14/34978-34992, 34995, 34997. However, it is probable there were other regiments in India at this time. The census was taken on the night of Sunday 2 April, 1911. Note however, there are is at least one known instance of a soldier and his family known to be in the British Army in India at the time of the census, whose names do not appeat in the census, another indication that the data may not be complete. The 1911 Census also includes similar information for other British Army overseas bases, and returns from ships of the Royal Navy at sea and in ports abroad.=====1911 Scotland Census=====*In Scotland, the Census was also taken on the night of Sunday 2 April 1911 and records are available online on the pay website [http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/content/help/index.aspx?r=554&2064 ScotlandsPeople].
