Isabella WELSH 1852-1899 married James HALL at Ballynamaddy, Ballymena on 2 Feb 1876.
Isabella died at Dromore on 13 Feb 1899 aged 46 of typhoid. Son James was the informant.
James HALL died 10 Feb 1901 at Dromore aged 76. Son James was informant. Quite a bit older than Isabella.
They had four children that I could find.
James 1877-1954.
Matilda Carson (Maud or Tillie) 1878-1959
Rosetta 1880
Isabella Brown (Bella) 1883
Can find Matilda and Bella in 1901 and 1911 with their brother James at Dromore.
Can't find Rosetta in 1901, but in 1911 she is a head mistress of a girl's school in Finchley in London.
Can anyone assist in finding anything else please.
Thanks

I wonder if the James Carson Welsh and Ruth Hall who married at Killymurris Church in 1879 were related to Isabella Brown Welsh and James Hall, a James C Welsh was a witness at James and Isabella's 1876 marriage:

Yes James Carson WELSH and Isabella WELSH who married James HALL were brother and sister. James HALL and Ruth HALL were not related that I can find. Lots of Halls in that area.

Can't find Rosetta in 1901...
This could be Rosetta in the 1901 census - an English governess.
At Orchard Lodge, a Ladies school. FindmyPast.
