About this Item
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. City of Belfast.] Taken in 1901, the report presents the population and land as it stood at that point. The census is more detailed than any prior. The land, its size and valuation, and the amount of people living on it, is broken down by district, town and townland, and by Poor Law unions. Similarly to the three previous censuses we are shown figures for hospitals, gaols and workhouses, ages of husbands and wives in relation to each other, people?s occupations, army and police figures, numbers of foreigners, numbers of disabled, levels of trade, religious affiliations, education standards reached, literacy levels, levels of Irish and English, and figures for emigration. All of these categories are broken down in detail, and compared with figures from previous censuses. Belfast was rapidly expanding into the biggest city on the island, and these figures provide a background for that development, and throw light on the various groups which began to populate it. Disbound, housed in protective file. First edition copy. . . . Books ship from the US and Ireland. Seller Inventory # BP0128106
