Ireland
The censuses for Ireland for the 19th century were largely destroyed by fire (1821-1851) or by order of the government (1861-1891).
The 1921 census was postponed due to the events leading to the partition of Ireland. A census was conducted on the 18th April 1926 in both Northern Ireland and the Irish Free State, the Northern Ireland records were destroyed but the Irish Free State census is due for release in January 2027. A limited census was taken in 1937 in Northern Ireland with no date for release.
