Irish Census

[MOCHARA1329]

What does it mean on the 1911 Irish census when it states event place? it states Co. Offaly
Below this is event place original states Co. Louth which is where the family actually lived.

Are you picking this up from ''Family Search''or the actual census itself ?

Much better to use the National Archives of Ireland search website

Agreed.
Ancestry has changed birth county of some of my ancestors from Mayo to another county because there's a townland called Mayo in the other county. 
Would you like to tell us which family you were looking at on the census so that we can look too and offer an opinion?

Thank you all for the replies
The family are O'Hanlon 1911 Census living at Castletown Road Dundalk

They've certainly moved about- family members born all over the place!
