Have you had any luck with looking at the 1911 Census?  If so can you let me know where this is sourced so that I can also research?

Hi Tom and Daniel

You may experience some difficulty accessing the Irish Census records as many were destroyed in WW1 and during a fire at the Public Records Office in 1922.

For details of census returns available (and suitable substitue information) see http://www.nireland.com/genealogy/census.html

For some links to the patchy census details available online see http://www.census-online.com/links/Ireland/

The 1911 is available at the National Archives of Ireland
1 Bishop Street
Dublin 8
Ireland

Good luck and best wishes
