Not LDS, just a person for several decades interested in History and love research.
As old as England is, they didn’t start census until 1841.
the U.S. 1790.
(ok, I know, Domesday Survey could count as a type of census for England early on.)
Am sure your dad will agree, Genealogy is a disease.
I think those records are available to anyone. My folks spent some time in England, doing some research. Dad said they have better stuff in SLC. But I know he is in contact with a person in London who does some research. For a fee of course. I haven’t asked him how that is going.
