Bridget Byrne is still at the same address in 1911, alone, age 69 a widow but states born Co Carlow. She has put on the form she had 6 children but has not stated how many still alive. Can't see any sign of Susan under either name though.

Kingstown was the old name for Dun Laoghaire. It was in Rathdown poor law union. Rathdown extended from S Co Dublin into N Co Wicklow.
In England, the original civil registration districts coincided with the poor law unions. I presume this was the case in Ireland, too.

The original is available to view, and she has learned to read & write since the 1901 census. The age is a bit out - so maybe arithmetic was not on the curriculum!

This is it. Bridget is widowed and lives alone, but this is the same address as the 1901 return
