What sort of information are you looking for?

The latest available Irish census is 1911 (it and 1901 are online, free)-
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

Added- the surname DUFFTY doesn't appear in either 1901 or 1911 census or civil registration index

A Patrick Duffley married 1st quarter 1911 in Athlone Reg district (Roscommon or Westmeath) 3/16
A Catherine Cunningham married 1st quarter 1911 in Athlone Reg district Roscommon or Westmeath) 3/16
There is a Patrick Duffley in 1901 census in Roscommon with father Michael
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai003833645/ though name is transcribed as Duffey.

This may be Patrick and his wife (Kate) and his father in 1911. Name is given as Duffily. Patrick and Kate married less than one year. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Roscommon/Lecarrow/Carrownamaddy/776604/

Looks like the births of William and some of his siblings were also registered in Athlone registration district.
