Blackrock Nicholas Smyth fisherman
« on: Friday 26 December 08 16:59 UTC (UK) »

I am looking to find some info on my great-grandfather the above who I believe lived in Sandy Lane Blackrock Haggardstown. He died in 1964 as is on his gravestone and was married to Bridget. Would be grateful if someone can look him up on any of the censuses.

Kind Regards

1911 census (latest one available) will eventually be online (and then 1901):
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/about/futureplans.html

These are the only 2 complete censuses for all Ireland.

Hi You can physically go to the Public records office in Bishop Sreet Dublin [National Archives] and do the search directly there.
I have personally  conducted a few searches for Blackrock there, for 1911 and 1901....it is quite easy.
There are still quite a few Smyths in Blackrock still.....

Checked now.........no Louth hits at all and no notification from N Arch. They seem to have all the counties up on the tickbox.....but I am not so sure all that work could happen so quickly since I last checked.

they decided to release all the data today, while they are still working on checking and correcting any errors.

You may have to try spelling variations (first and second name) or search by location.

not sure what's going on there... the town of Blackrock is listed but has no occupants : http://census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Louth/Haggardstown/

I see a Sandy Grove, Blackrock on modern maps but no sign that I can see the street on the 1911 returns.

Thanks Shane

There are no names coming up under haggardstown, Blackrock on the census. I presume this must be an error

the closest name that I see is a Nickles Smyth (age 45)  - but he's not in Blackrock or a fisherman : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06zq/

looking at the form the firstname looks like Nickless??

Thanks Shane

I saw that too. It's not him and the one on the census can't read or write, hence the spelling error Embarrassed

I suppose if he was a fisherman he could have been out on his boat that day and not included in the census ? I know ships in port are usually included, but people at sea could not be.

Do you know the names of any of his family .. wife, children etc ?

It does look like there is some sort of problem with Blackrock..zero occupants does not sound right. Hopefully its one the fixes they are working on.
