For reference here's the link to the 1911 census to see full details-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Donegal/Ballyshannon/Bachelors_Walk/476728

Have you looked to see if there are any other girls the same age in 1911 that could be your Mary Leonard?
What was Mary Leonard's mother's maiden name? her birth certificate should be available online in case you don't know-

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
