If you mean Richard Evans, my database shows his marriage to Catherine Fennell in 1851 and the baptisms of a daughter in 1852.  There is a good deal on the Internet about his quarrel with the parish priest, Canon McSwiney.

You do not say whether Richard Evans is the person we are talking about.  The person in the census of 1911 must be a son or grandson of his, no? 
I cannot paste any of the data into this message.  You will need to send me your e-mail address.  There is some way of doing it, but I cannot remember how.
