=== How surname indexes can help locate a person when a computer search of the large census databases is unsuccessful. ===


<br>Today, there are many useful websites and computer indexes for all of&nbsp;England, Wales and Scotland.&nbsp; These include those found at FamilySearch.org, Scotlandspeople.gov.uk, Ancestry.com, FindMyPast, etc.&nbsp; These are a good place to begin your search for people in the census.

There are, however, times when you cannot find your ancestor in these large indexes.&nbsp; Perhaps, a mistake was made when these large indexes were made, or a person's name was not easy to recognize&nbsp;in the census enumeration&nbsp;book,&nbsp;or the surname was spelled differently.&nbsp; In such a situation, you may be able to find your ancestor in the census&nbsp;by using a smaller surname index for the parish or town of interest.&nbsp; When looking at a smaller index, it can be easier to pick out an alternative spelling of a person's surname.&nbsp; These indexes are also ideal for finding all of the people with a specific surname in a specific location.

Many of these are available, in book, CD,&nbsp;microfilm&nbsp;and microfiche form.&nbsp; The Family History Library (Salt Lake City, Utah, USA) has a large and growing collection of these smaller&nbsp;indexes.&nbsp;
