Census 1911:
Clearly the Enumerator completed the census form as the writing matches his signature.  One has to wonder if he visited the house at all?  Michael Donoghue and Bridget Hegarty are the parents of the two children on the census link below.  However the Form has the name of the Head of the Family as John.  Then his father's name is given as Michael. A bit of a mix up it seems.
