I am in NSW Australia, and I read the last word as Ross.  Is there a county in Ireland by that name?

Here's a snip of her occupation containing a capital 'R'  :-\

I can see that last word starting with an 'H' or 'Sl', but not 'R'.

Yes, that suggestion of "Ross" simply doesn't stand up to the test when compared with that R in that second snip, thanks JenB.     :D

Hi ZKT  :) I hope you don't mind me saying it would have been really helpful if you had given the actual name or the census reference under which we could have found her in 1861, it would have saved a lot of searching.
 
Links to earlier threads on the same topic are also helpful to save duplication of searching

Catherine remarried after Bernard Irons death and is listed as Catherine Johnson, widow, living in Weaverham Cheshire with Kenerley family in 1861 (RG9/2601)

Does anyone know if there are Ireland parish records for Ballinasloe for late 1700s anywhere?

Hi JenB Apols if I have wasted your time but I only asked for suggestions on place name. I didn't expect anyone to do any searches for me.
