10 signatures? No wonder it didn't work.

Fascinating pieces of history though, and the situation LFC and the North of Ireland/Northern Ireland/Ulster/Occupied Six Counties are in almost 100 years later. Who'd a thunk it?

The whole of the 1911 Census returns for Antrim (including CofI Irish speakers in the Gaeltacht areas of Rathlin and the Glens -- hear the latter dialect here) and Down are searchable on www.census.nationalarchives.ie, by the way.
