1939 Register of England & Wales
34.414.422 documenti
Il registro della popolazione di Inghilterra e Galles del 1939 è stato raccolto il 29 settembre 1939. Per ciascun componente del nucleo familiare il registro della popolazione indica nome, sesso, indirizzo, data di nascita, stato civile, luogo di residenza e professione. Per i genealogisti e gli studiosi di storia familiare questa raccolta è un essenziale sostituto del censimento. L'intero censimento di Inghilterra e Galles del 1931 è andato distrutto in un incendio e nel 1941 il censimento non fu eseguito. Questo rende il registro della popolazione del 1939 la raccolta più completa analoga ad un censimento per la popolazione di Inghilterra e Galles tra il 1921 e il 1951*.<br><br>The 1939 Register was conducted in ways like a census and includes similar information. One important difference for genealogists is the full date of birth is recorded in the 1939 Register for each person whereas the traditional censuses conducted in England and Wales only records each person’s age.<br> <br>The information in this collection was gathered under the authority of the National Registration Act of 1939 – an emergency measure at the start of the Second World War. 65,000 enumerators delivered the forms ahead of the official registration day. On Friday, 29 September 1939 (National Registration Day) householders were required to record the requested information on the supplied forms. On the following Sunday and Monday local enumerators visited every household, checked and gathered the completed forms, and issued identity cards to each of the residents in the household.<br> <br>Of the 42 million individuals who are recorded in this collection, 6.9 million records remain closed due to privacy protection requirements, and about 700,000 additional records appear without full names. Records are closed for those individuals who were born less than 100 years ago unless matched to a registered death record. These closed records will be made public and added to this online collection on a yearly basis going forward.<br> <br>* The 1951 Census is closed until 2052.
