1902. [The Census of Ireland, 1901 - Area, Houses, and Population: Also the Ages, Civil or Conjugal Condition, Occupations, Birthplaces, Religion, and Education of the People. Province of Ulster. County of Armagh.] Taken in 1901, the report presents the population and land as it stood at that point. The census is more detailed than any prior.

All of these categories are broken down in detail, and compared with figures from previous censuses. Disbound, housed in protective file. First edition copy. . . . Seller Inventory # BP0128099
