Abstract
WP 23 first outlines the various gaps in e-census records from BBCE and I-CeM and how they have arisen. It assesses sources for identifying archivally lost records and compares these with the BBCE and I-CeM databases at the level of RSDs for census years 1851-6, and 1881-1911. The paper develops weights to compensate for the identified gaps and provides downloads of weights to be used with I-CeM and/or BBCE.
