The 1901 census data was collected from areas defined as District Electoral Divisions, and this set of data follows that pattern. Some researchers have submitted townlands based on the civil parish, without the DED, and these are indexed by civil parish. So be sure to check both indexes when you are looking for your townland. A few townlands are duplicated in both sets of organization.

Our only source for data is researchers just like you. Do you have census trancriptions you can add? Please include the DEDs and civil parish if possible. Contact Waterlilys.
