Abraham1:
I believe Cahir is correct but in the past the town was called Caher. See link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahir
I assume this is the 1901 census record that you located. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Tipperary/Caher/Caherabbey_Upper/1707833/
I did not locate the family in the 1911 census.
If your John and Bridget were married in 1875, you would expect that they would have children closer to 20 but the oldest child was 16 in the census record. In any event if this is the family, you may want to get a birth record for the youngest child Richard (age 6 in the census). I found a birth index record www.familysearch.org for a Richard O'Donnell born in early 1895 for the Clogheen registration district (which includes Cahir). You could contact the GRO www.groireland.ie to get a copy of the record. You need to fill out their form provide the quarter/year of registration, the registration district and the volume and page number.
