Place & story

Twenty inhabitants

The 1901 census counted twenty inhabitants in Corran, ten male and ten female. Six of its seven houses were occupied and one was empty. Its population had been thirty-two in 1881 and thirty in 1891, with seven and eight houses respectively. A footnote attached to the 1901 population attributes the decrease to removals from the townland. The table places Corran in Templeport parish, Tullyhaw barony and Lissanover electoral division, within Bawnboy Union. Its recorded area was 145 acres, two roods and four perches. [2]
