Wife Margaret's death, 20 April 1892, at The Outhill, Antrim. Son Hugh informant

I couldn't find the daughter Mary's, but didn't look very hard. It looks like January 1888, age 26, but I don't think there was a match to that date. I might be wrong. At any rate I'd guess she died between the time her father died and when her mother died.

The rest look clear enough in Hoobaloo's cleanup image.
