1891 census Waterford Ireland
« on: Friday 27 October 06 11:25 BST (UK) »
Daft question, but is the census for 1891 in Ireland available I am looking  for a Reverend Minister, Samuel Davey Thomas and family, who were in Ireland at that time, which I believe to be Waterford ,He was born 1843 Cardiff Wales and his wifes name was Elizabeth .
Thanks for your time Tsumi

First complete census records for Ireland is 1901.
1821, 1831, 1841, 1851 largely destroyed 1922.
1861 & 1871 destroyed by government order earlier.
Don't see any sign of ones for 1881 & 1891.

If you know the name of a church, check to see if they have any records about Rev. Thomas.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thanks very much for your reply, I had feared it was the case .As for a church all I know is that the family were in Waterford after 1882 and before 1901,and he was a Baptist.
Back to the drawing board I am afraid . Cheers Tsumi
