For County Donegal in Ireland, the 1901 and 1911 censuses are the first ones which survive. Both can be viewed on microfilm at Donegal County library in Letterkenny. Our first visit there in August 2001 found our Hanlon family just where we expected them near Dungloe - surrounded by an awful lot more Hanlons in the area! So here they are...

Notes
- Townland spellings are shown as they were found in the records.
- Wherever data was missing or illegible this has been shown as "--" .
- Note that in the 1901 census people often gave their ages as a round number, e.g. 60 instead of 63.
- Ages are generally more accurate in the 1911 census... EXCEPT for some elderly people. Bear in mind that pension law was passed in 1907 and a staggering number of elderly people suddenly aged abruptly between the two censuses of 1901 and 1911 - just enough to make pensionable age! This may not be as crooked as it sounds. There was no civil registration of births, deaths and marriages until 1864 so anyone elderly in 1911 probably really didn't know how old they were.
