This chart is a breakdown of how Ballynacregga residents responded to the census category, "Write the word "IRISH" in this column opposite the name of each person who speaks IRISH only, and the words "IRISH & ENGLISH" opposite the names of those who can speak both languages. In other cases no entry should be made in this column." in 1901 and 1911.
