  • 1951 Census Down County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch, 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7* 6d NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Down Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Government of Northern Irel&nd was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of more limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid-night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious pro­ fession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.

  • Smythe-Wood Series B
    Mainly Ulster families – “B” series – Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Ulster ‘SERIES B’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

  • Heritage Presbyterian Church in Ireland Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church of Ireland Reformed Presbyterian Church of Ireland Autumn 2019
    Heritage Presbyterian Church in Ireland Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church of Ireland Reformed Presbyterian Church of Ireland Autumn 2019 Hello and welcome! As my daughter watched the film Braveheart on television which deals with William Wallace, the 13th-century Scottish warrior who led the Scots against King Edward I of England, I pointed out various inaccuracies in the story. Eventually she turned to me and said rather crossly, “Dad you watch the History Channel and let me enjoy the film.” Sadly I have found that fewer and fewer people are interested in history, and what they do ‘know’ is not always accurate. I was watching a drama in a theatre recently when a ‘teacher’ on stage instructed her pupils that King William won the Battle of the Boyne on 12 July 1690. I am sure there are many who believe that to be true, but it is not. Before you panic, yes King Billy won the battle, but it was on 1 July 1690. The calendar was advanced by 11 days in 1752 to fall into line with the one introduced by Pope Gregory XII. As the late comic James Young pointed out, Orangemen march on 12 July because of the Pope! The Rev S.S. McFarland said in a sermon preached in First Carrickfergus, “The curse of Ireland is bad history, history which is based on fact but which is not factual.” The story of the church in Ireland is fascinating. There are wonderful tales to be told of the Celtic church, the coming of Patrick, the arrival of the Scottish settlers and their Presbyterian religion.
