Counties with Julian in Ireland
Laois was Julian country: 27.8% of them (27 people) lived there in 1911. Next came Cork (17), Kilkenny (12), Carlow (11) and Clare (11).

Julian average age in 1911
The average Julian in 1911 was 29.8 years old, 30.0 for men and 29.6 for women; almost exactly in line with the national averages of 29.6 for men and 30.5 for women. That low figure reflects just how many children there were in Edwardian Ireland, along with high infant mortality and the limits of public health at the time. For comparison, average life expectancy in Ireland today is around 83.
Julian literacy in 1911
Of the Julians whose literacy was recorded, 89.7% could both read and write, 2.1% could read but not write, and 8.2% could do neither. Men came out slightly ahead, 93% reading and writing against 87% of women. Bear in mind these figures include young children; the census itself only counted people aged nine and over when calculating illiteracy, on the grounds that it was unfair to label a child illiterate before they'd had a chance to learn.
