Hello,
Yes, I am still interested in the Black connection, although all I can I tell you is that after Margaret Curran's early death, her husband re-married and lived in Londonderry. I think he is there in the 1911 census with new wife, son James and further children.
Margaret and James married 12 Dec 1895 3rd Presbyterian Church, Letterkenny. She must have died around the time of her son's birth but I don't know exactly when.
Her eldest sister visited from Canada in 1923 and gave her address in Ireland as c/o her brother-in-law James Black, 1 Northland Avenue, Derry.

I've just been checking my original post and it should read
Patrick died at the Roughan, Ramelton in 1917. Not Charles.
