 ==== United Kingdom ====
 The national UK census as it is known today started in 1801, partly to ascertain the number of men able to fight in the Napoleonic wars.
-The census has been conducted every ten years since 1801 (except for 1941, when the nation was otherwise occupied) and most recently in 2001. The first four censuses (1801-1831) were mainly statistical (that is, they were mainly headcounts and contained virtually no personal information).
+The census has been conducted every ten years since 1801 (except for 1941, when the nation was otherwise preoccupied) and most recently in 2011. The first four censuses (1801-1831) were mainly statistical (that is, they were mainly headcounts and contained virtually no personal information).
 The 1841 Census, conducted by the General Register Office, was the first to record the names of everyone in a household or institution. However, their relationship to the head of the household wasn’t noted, although sometimes this can be inferred from the occupation shown (eg servant). Those under the age of 15 had their proper ages listed, but for those who were older the ages were supposed to be rounded down to the nearest five years, although this rule was not strictly adhered to. Precise birthplaces were not given - at best the birthplace can be narrowed down to the county in which the person was living.
