Blackrock Nicholas Smyth fisherman
« on: Friday 26 December 08 16:59 GMT (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.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

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.
