The National Archives of Ireland (https://nationalarchives.ie) has released a short video giving a tantalising glimpse of the work currently underway to prepare the 1926 Irish census for release on 18 April 2026.
You can view the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQn7dxNAgzk, or below, where it is embedded for your convenience.
The census covers the 26 counties that formed the Irish Free State at the time, now the republic that is Ireland - the equivalent records for the Northern Irish census, taken on the same night as its southern equivalent, have sadly not survived.
