Sarah Ann Colgan

Question

Sarah Ann was born in Derryscallop, County Armagh about 1876. She married Samuel John Preston in 1903. Can anyone tell me who her parents were and did she have any brothers or sisters? I don't know when she died but her husband died in 1947 when they were living in Banbridge.

Comments

Sarah Ann may be mentioned on David McKinney's family tree in Ancestry as he has entered her brother Robert (born 1882 in Copney) and married a Minnie Walker in 1905. I still cannot find her birth which should be around 1878 in County Armagh or nearby.

Hi Marion and no this can't be my grandmother as her father was called John. In the 1901 Census she was 23 and she married in 1903. Sorry!
