Census Sunday - Following Hudson Little with Census & Other Documents

 Hudson Little my Great Grand Uncle on my Mothers Fathers side continues.............  

I did locate the United Kingdom Census for 1841- 1851 & 1861. I only added the basic information for the 1841 because Hudson was not born yet. But I wanted to see where the family was living 10 years prior and it looks different than the 1851 when Hudson first appeared.

=============================================

New Zealand has never published censuses preferring to keep them for statistical purposes only

So I have tracked Hudson through all the census available........ and since New Zealand has not published their census I have a New Zealand Electoral Rolls documented from 1874 to 1911. I also have him listed in the New Zealand Cities Directory from 1898 to 1933. So I am comfortable knowing where he was almost every year of his life ......... Dec 1 when I started on this look at Hudson Little I did do a timeline first
