Elaine,

Check the Clare Library site at www.clarelibrary.ie for Ruan Crowes.

For example, here are what are probably your Crowes in the 1901 census of Ballyogan More at http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclar ... e18_16.htm

That tells you the townland where they probably lived (if that's the right Crowe family).

So if you search the 1911 census of Ballyogan More you find a family living there which matches them (except that they have changed their name to its Irish version) at http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/p ... re/351897/

Paddy
