Other forms used in the 1901 census were: “Form N” (Enumerator’s Abstract for a Townland or Street), “Form B1” (House and Building Return, which recorded details on the house and general information on the families residing therein), and “Form B2” (Return of Out-Offices and Farm-Steadings, which listed, with some exceptions, all out-offices intended for domestic or agricultural purposes).Though national censuses were taken every decade from 1821 to 1911, the 1901 census is the earliest complete census still in existence; most of the previous censuses were destroyed.Images and index to this census were created by and obtained from the National Archives of Ireland. |
