Notes: - An alternative spelling of Connacht is Connaught. Laoighis can be spelt Laois or Leix (pronounced as Leash). Tipperary is split into Ridings, North and South. (Population split = NR ~ 59,522 and SR ~ 77,097) Although Donegal is in Ulster, it is part of the Republic of Ireland, not the UK. It seems that the last census in Ireland was in 1986 as publications of 1999 still show that data. |
