Counties with Uniacke in Ireland
Cork was Uniacke country: 38.6% of them (22 people) lived there in 1911. Next came Galway (17), Tipperary (7), Waterford (5) and Westmeath (4).
Uniacke average age in 1911
The average Uniacke in 1911 was 27.6 years old, 26.4 for men and 29.4 for women; a touch younger than 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.
Uniacke literacy in 1911

Women came out slightly ahead, 77.3% reading and writing against 56.2% of men. 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.
