Place & story
A distinct townland return
Carr’s entry in the 1851 census records thirty-two inhabitants, fourteen male and eighteen female, in five occupied houses. The 1841 figures were forty-nine people in six inhabited houses. Listed under Devenish parish, Carr has its own return immediately before the separate entries for Carran East and Carran West. This distinction matters when following local records: the neighbouring names do not describe a single census population. The table records Carr’s smaller population and housing total without identifying the reasons for either change. [2]
