Sorry, GKM, All I know is that the 1901 & 1911 returns were progressed for early promulgation due to the disasters involving previous census returns. I don't know what the usual quarantine period is for later ones.

The Statistics Act, passed in the early 1990s, sets one hundred years as the tariff before census records created since the foundation of the State can be released to the public. This means that the 1926 census will not be released until 1st January 2027. The Council of Irish Genealogical Organisations (CIGO) (http://indigo.ie/~gorry/CIGO.html) holds the view that the 1926, and possibly the 1936, returns should be released early as the data recorded is very brief (compared to what is recorded in modern times) and because a very large number of those recorded in these returns would have been born before the commencement of full of civil registration in Ireland in 1864. Hope this helps, Steven Smyrl MAPGI "Is Mise Gan Ainm" <nospamming@rogers.com> wrote in message news:pNWdnf_hq4qufPneRVn-ig@rogers.com... > Sorry, GKM, All I know is that the 1901 & 1911 returns were progressed for > early promulgation due to the disasters involving previous census returns. > I > don't know what the usual quarantine period is for later ones. > > > "GKM" <gkmcauliff@cox.net> wrote in message > news:0CY8f.12476$gj1.5075@fed1read05... >> >> "Is Mise Gan Ainm" <nospamming@rogers.com> wrote in message >> news:m86dnTh2FbGLcv3eRVn-pQ@rogers.com... >> > Yes, Dennis - It is true that the County Clare Library has the 1901 >> > returns >> > on-line, But I was referring to the question of those for Co.
