Place & story
The rural entry
Donaghmore’s rural return recorded forty-three inhabitants in 1911, twenty male and twenty-three female. Nine of its eleven houses were occupied and two were empty. The corresponding population had been thirteen in 1891 and twelve in 1901. The townland was listed in Donaghmore parish and electoral division, within Dungannon Middle barony and Dungannon Poor Law Union. Its recorded area was eighty-three acres and eleven perches. [2]
The town within the same townland
Donaghmore town had a separate return of 183 inhabitants, eighty-six male and ninety-seven female. Its sixty-three houses included fifty-five occupied dwellings and eight empty houses. The town population had been 234 in both 1891 and 1901. A footnote states that the town stood entirely on Donaghmore townland and that its area and valuation were included there. The rural figure alone therefore does not represent the whole settlement. [2]
