Hi

There is this record for Margaret Heather b. Dublin and she is also a domestic servant, although religion and age are different

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/results.jsp?surname=heather&firstname=margaret&county=&townland=&ded=&age=&sex=&search=Search

The one below is the only Margaret Ann I could find with other details that match, but this doesnt make sense either based on the birth of Frederick

I dont know if all people were recorded on the census, I have some records of people still being alive in 1911 and I have not been able to find them on the census.
