Biography

Margaret was the daughter of James Morris, farmer; and lived at Cornavarrow as of 1878. She was "full age" (21+) at this time.

On 7 January 1878 at Langfield R.C. chapel, she married Michael Healy of Dooish, son of James Healy. Witnessed by Mick Campbell and Margaret McCanny. [1]

There was one son James (1878).

Research Notes

Her husband appears to remarry as a widower in 1890; although no death registration has been found. Her death may have been unregistered, or perhaps they separated and chose to record as "widow" -- divorce was very rare for Ireland in this time period.

There is actually a Margaret Healy widow age 40 for Tyrone in the census; at Lifford New Road, Strabane. Link. Further research reveals her husband to be a John Healy however.
