Oriental District data received and imported by PD

Received the data set for census 1911 sub district 20, the Oriental District, from PD yesterday. Imported mostly without incident, except that the large size of the CSV - 3144 rows, almost 3x as many as previous data sets - caused the loader application to time out resulting in my having to run the import multiple times to get all of the rows.

viHistory

viHistory is a web site that is a teaching, learning and research tool. It's principally about the history of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, but it is also a vehicle for exploring the larger field of Canadian history during the late 19th and early part of the 20th century. It allows census, directory and tax assessment roll data from the late 19th and early 20th centuries to be searched in many ways. It also incorporates IMaP to display historical maps. The project director is Dr. Patrick A. Dunae.
