I think Kildare DED starts on film number 004105089 or possibly some of it is on the previous film, I only looked at the start of each film.
You’ll have to work your way through to find Sillothill, it should be there but I don’t know for sure.
You’ll have to register with Family Search if you’re not already.

Civil Parish of Moone, Barony of Offaly East. Oddly the Townland just below it, Shanacloon, is part of the Civil Parish of Ballyshannon.

Hi,
Thanks for replying, I eventually found the listings. So, Silliothill returns have been incorrectly catalogued as Chapel Hill for the 1901 census. If you look up Chapel Hill in Kildare town, you'll notice that there are duplicate house numbers (i.e. two 'House 1', two 'House 2', etc.) Half of the houses are actually Silliothill!  Hope this might be helpful for anyone else searching the 1901 census for Silliothill, Kildare town.
On the parishes, yes it's a strange one, and I'd bet there's a good story behind that too!
