1926 Irish census

This was just released!

Exciting news for many of us.

I found my family still living in the same place in Kilkenny and my late husband's family in Galway!

What a great find/surprise!

I hope you find some of your Irish ancestors here:

First time I saw this grandfather's signature.

Looks just like the way my father signed his own name.
They have the same name.

So cool.......

Yes they are still living in the same place as the 1911 census.
