Graham and Waterman (2005) argued that there was a substantial underenumeration of Jews in the UK 2001 Census of Population. Their observations are valuable but some of the specific pieces of evidence and the recommendations that they offer can be criticised. There is an alternative method of estimating the extent to which Jews were undercounted in the census; it produces results that largely support their claims. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
