Census for the whole of Ireland were taken in 1821, 1831, 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901 and 1911. However, the 1st four were destroy in a fire in 1922 and only a couple pages/fragments survived. Those for 1861 to 1891 were completely destoyed by England before 1922. So, all that is left of the early censuses are 1901 and 1911. Here are some websites that have censuses transcribed online: A site that has a number of links to censuses online http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hiflyte/iredata/refdata/ce nsus_links/irl_cen_links.html The National Archives are currently putting the 1911 online fully searchable. They are doing iit by county and they are pretty slow. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/ So far they have the current counties online: Dublin, Antrim, Down and Kerry NOTE: After 1911 censuses were done by the Republic and Northern Island (England) but haven't been released as yet. > Did the irish take the census as regularly as us?
