Anyone else excited for the Free State Irish census release tomorrow?

[AInightingale]

Anyone else looking forward to the release of the 26 county Free State Irish census tomorrow (18 April)? What do you hope to find out?

I don't know why I'm writing this, as the site will probably crash immediately and be unavailable for ages.

Unlike the 1911 Irish census, this doesn't seem to have a column for disabilities (or whatever horrible pejorative terms were used back then). Or am I missing something? Was a disability just written against the person's name?

O finding it veey difficult to navigate.
There is a road that was featured in the 1901 and 1911 censuses. It is still a residential road but when I enter the name of the road and the area I am getting nothing. It is in a suburb of Dublin. The houses there date from the 1850s onwards right up to present day new builds.

Excuse my spellings in the first sentence 😮
I didn’t check before I posted. 🫢

My daughter lived on a road of terrace houses in north dublin city. I can't find it on any census. It must have changed name but no reason why!
I don't really like the new site. But I assumed that's because I'm used to the old ones.

There might have been boundary changes in Dublin. I have struggled to find people sometimes on Irish Genealogy, the govt civil records site, and it's usually because of that. There is Co Dublin, Dublin (presumably the inner city) and Dublin North and Dublin South.

They have a whole section of south inner city Dublin missing apparently and a road I was researching in a different part of Dublin was completely and utterly “renamed” from the 1901
and the 1911 censuses.
It is still known today as the name it had on the 1901 and 1911 censuses.

Any chance it could have been recorded as its Irish version on that census? You might want to factor in spelling variations too as this would be pre- Caighdeán.

eg Howth Road could be Bóthar Binn Éadair/ Binn Eadir/ Ben/ Beann etc

I know some place names changed for political reasons too.
