1901 census for Co. Galway

Townland: Loughrea T/Galway Road
Parish: Loughrea
Baroney: Loughrea
County: Galway

Household: Tierney

Head Joseph 47 bootmaker
Ellen wife 46
Joseph son 19 tailor
Thomas son 14 bootmaker
Bridget daughter 13
Mary Kate daughter 11
Nellie daughter 9
Hubert son 7

Unfortunately that part of Galway is not yet online for the 1911 census report. Families didn't move around much and as you have the townland they were living in (Loughrea T/Galway Road) I will find the local church for you if you want and you can then make enquiries (if it is still there) to see if there is any access to the records for the Tierney family history. Births etc. were not required to be registered in Ireland until the mid 1860's - and they didn't always do it then. The Irish say 'if there's a rule, how can I break it/get round it' which doesn't help us much when trying to do research.

Hope the above helps
