Irish Statistics

I really like this website. It's not so much searching for ancestors - and you won't find names - as it is finding stats that sometimes put details into perspective. For instance you can compare the numbers of births within marriage, and those outside marriage for 1916 and 2012 ... and you can do it by Irish county!! Pretty interesting, and would add some 'texture' and interest when writing your family history if you cared to include it. There's much more here too. Have a peek http://www.cso.ie/en/releasesandpublications/ep/p-1916/1916irl/bmd/


Cheers,
