Thanks very much to Kiltaglassen for your help and prompt replies.  Especially for pointing me to the correct death record for Sarah.    The 1875 record was the only one I was finding in my search despite using broad parameters - other family trees of descendant connections had the 1875 death and I had checked to verify and rule out any other possibilities.  I never take other tree information as so many are incorrect - quite a number on this line have multiple flaws in the trees.  I always do my own search but hadn't found any other likely deaths.  The 1895 death certainly makes more sense.  I have yet to find the marriage record for George and Sarah - will keep trawling the parish registers for this. 
I do have all the other census, birth and marriage records for the Catherine Campbell/Peter Hughes family from my research.   
Thank you again for you help and prompt response.

I am researching George Campbell and Sarah Jane Campbell parents of Catherine Campbell b1868 (married Peter Hughes) and James Campbell b1869 (married Ellen Hughes in USA).  My Campbell great grandfather George migrated to Australia born Tullyodonnell, Desertcreight parish. Father Hugh, mother Sarah McGahan.  The only firm links we have are DNA matches to the descendants of James Campbell and Ellen Hughes.  I am keen to find more on George and Sarah Jane and haven't been able to find a marriage record though I see some state 1860.  First child I have found baptised is Mary b 1865 d 1866 Derrytresk.  Also haven't found records for deaths of Peter Hughes and Catherine Campbell on Irish civil records site.  Valuation revision books suggest that land occupied by George Campbell of Derrytresk was occupied by Felix Wallace in the time period following George Campbell's death in 1879 (Sarah died in 1875)  Felix Wallace was married to Sarah Campbell (father Hugh).  Interested in family connections and also what may have happend to George and Sarah's children after their death.  Probate in 1896 shows letters of administration to daughter Catherine.  Any help or possible clues much appreciated.    Louise Wonnocott (nee Campbell)
