Gregory was involved with the National Archives of Ireland’s Census 1926 project as social historian, co-curating the major Census 1926 exhibitions presented in Dublin, London and Boston. He contributed multiple chapters to the publication The Story of Us: Independent Ireland and the 1926 census (eds. Orlaith McBride and John Gibney).
The 1926 Census was made available on-line and free of charge in April 2026. Its significance is considered critically important for understanding the development of modern Ireland and provides a snap-shot of the country after independence. With its scope of 26 counties it was the first one taken after the establishment of the Free State.
Gregory Walls is a doctoral student at Trinity College Dublin on the Research Ireland-funded Witnessing War, Making Peace project.
