Thanks Forfarian for your input.

The 1901 cences shows my great grandmother residing in Dublin, and states she was born in Scotland. Her daughter, my greandmother is in the 1911 and states she was born in Scotland, so it seems the family moved around.

Re The info about the address, I am not sure where I retrieved it from....I need to refocus and come back to you on that one.

Thanks again for your help, it's gtreat.

No need, I think ev has got the right answer.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
