The LDS web site
This is an important site which you ought to explore. However the most useful pages are likely to be:
Search: This allows you to search for your ancestor by name (including surname only) the Ancestral File, the International Genealogical Index (IGI), the Pedigree Resource File, and several others.
Search IGI: Allows more focused searches (for instance by county) of the International Genealogical Index. See Using the IGI online, IGI Batch Numbers and The Limitations of familysearch.
Search library catalogue by place: Allows you to see the LDS library holdings relating to the place you name. (Remember that the LDS use "Hertford" to indicate "Hertfordshire".)
Locate Family History Centres: Find the address of the nearest LDS Family History Centre to where you live.
The 1881 census is is now available online at search_census, together with the 1880 US and 1881 Canadian censuses.
If you can add to the information given above tell me.
