Description for [Census of Ireland 1911 - Cork]
Disbound. [The Census of Ireland, 1911 - Area, Houses, and Population: Also the Ages, Civil or Conjugal Condition, Occupations, Birthplaces, Religion, and Education of the People. Province of Munster. County and City of Cork.] Taken in 1911, the report presents the population and land as it stood at that point. The census is more detailed than any prior. The congested nature, particularly but not exclusively of the towns is emphasized by the housing analysis, and the religious divide, already previously apparent, is here easy to analyse. 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. The districts for Cork are Bandon, Bantry, Castletown, Charleville, Clonakilty, Cork, Dunmanway, Fermoy, Kanturk, Kinsale, Macroom, Mallow, Middleton, Millstreet, Mitchelstown, Skibbereen, Skull, Youghal and Queenstown. Similarly to the four 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. The figures for Cork City are presented parallel with those for the county. Disbound, housed in protective file. Although published by HMSO in London it was printed by The Athlone Printing Works Company.
