Walsh Census Records

The Walsh name in the Early U.S. Federal Census
ENGLAND
Statistically, the 1841 census for England indicates just over 4,800 persons with the WALSH surname, 25% of these indicating a birthplace in Ireland. The surname WELCH appears with just over 5,400 individuals, of these almost 500 indicate their birthplace in Ireland. The surname WELSH appears with over 3,100 individuals, 500 of these indicating birth in Ireland. The surname WALCH appears with almost 850 persons, with about 75 born in Ireland.
IRELAND
Note: Census records for 19th century Ireland are largely destroyed.
The 1841 Census returns for two Townlands in AGLISH PARISH, COUNTY KILKENNY.
The 1841 Census was taken on the 6th of June and is of particular interest
as it gives information concerning marriage dates, literacy, absent members
of the family and those who had died since the last Census in 1831. These
Parishes are located at the very southern tip of County Kilkenny.
