Place & story
Nine inhabited houses in 1911
The original 1911 Westmeath census records twenty-six residents in Baltrasna: thirteen males and thirteen females. Its nine houses were all inhabited. The townland is listed in Castle electoral division and Mullingar parish, within Mullingar Union. The comparative columns give fifty-seven residents in fifteen houses in 1891 and thirty-four residents in thirteen houses in 1901. These figures concern the larger Baltrasna near Mullingar, rather than the Kilcleagh parish townland of the same name. [2]
