Roger:

Is there an online source of Irish census data for years after 1920?

    The 1911 census is the latest available online. The next census was the 1926 census and currently there is a 100 year rule/law in effect which would prevent the release of that data until 2026. There has been some effort to amend the law to release the 1926 data in 2016. Lets hope that happens.

    I forgot that you are researching in Northern Ireland. Unfortunately the 1926 census for Northern Ireland was destroyed. I will try to find more details.
