I've just done a place search on 1911 census. It lists both Barrack and Barracks Yard, Killamarsh near Shefield. No other details though without looking at a family.

Hi Pat I've just come across your inquiry on "Roots" about Barracks Yard I don't know if you found the answers you were looking for,but when researching about my ancestors the Paulucci's I found that my Great Grandma's sister Ellen Batty(nee Paulucci) was living in Barracks Yard with her husband and children on the 1891 census and her husband was also a coal miner,but I don't know if the houses were specifally for coal miners families, but Great Grandma's other sister Eliza Wallis (nee Paulucci) and her husband who was a Blacksmith Striker presumably at the pit also lived in Barracks Yard, so I have been asking some of my older relatives who were brought up in that area if they knew where it was,they all say it was at the bottom of Lock Hill, Nethergreen, Killamarsh.
I hope this info has been of some help.

Hi Pat,yes it was there along time in fact there are still some old houses standing and being lived in at what was the entrance to Barracks Yard we took my uncle who is 84 years old, with us to show us where it was yesterday, so we took a photo of the remaining houses,I am attaching the photo that we took.
I'm glad we have been of some help.

Hi Pat are you from Killamarsh originally or is it that you just found that address on the marriage certificate,if you look at the photo that green fence on it was where my grandad used to live,there has now been a new house built there.

Hi Claypit,
No, I'm not from the Killamarsh area. My husband's Grandparents lived there, although he never knew them.
This makes researching rather difficult. I've had a lot of help from people such as yourself which makes things easier.
Add to that, the fact that my husbands mother was fostered by someone in Sheffield, doesn't make the task any easier.
We don't know if she ever knew her real family, as she never spoke of them.
We have also found she had numerous siblings.
The really sad part is that we have found some of her aunts came to Australia, as she did, and lived quite close.
She was born in the Rose Villas, Loch Hill, Killamarsh.
Her father was Samuel Johnson, a coal miner.
Cheers,
Pat.
