      County Mayo had, in 1936, 41.5 per cent, of its peak population of 388,887 in 1841. Nine of the twenty-six counties in Eire maintained their population to a greater degree than Mayo between 1841 and 1936. Dublin city ...

    • The changing distribution of population in Donegal, with special reference to the congested areas 

      Freeman, T. W. (Statistical and Social Inquiry Society of Ireland, 1941)

      Freeman, T. W. (Statistical and Social Inquiry Society of Ireland, 1944)
      County Sligo had 180,886 inhabitants in 1841 and 67,447 in 1936, a decrease of 62.6 per cent. The eleven counties with an even more marked decline include Leitrim and Roscommon, but not Mayo, which had a decrease of ...
