Place & story

Fifty-two residents in 1911

The 1911 census lists Carrickbrack in Ballymore parish, Orior Lower barony and Poyntz Pass electoral division. It records fifty-two inhabitants, twenty-eight male and twenty-four female, in fifteen occupied houses; two further houses were empty. The population had been sixty-eight in 1891 and sixty-five in 1901. Carrickbrack has its own townland return, separate from Poyntz Pass town and its divisions across Armagh and Down. The table records the changing population without explaining why it fell. [2]
