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.Hello,

Quote from: Lodger link=topic=416082.msg2821097#msg2821097 daate=1256904231Patrick Curran, a Catholic, married Catherine Stevenson, a Presbyterian, at All Saints Newton in 1858. Both kept their religions and their sons were raised in the faith of their father, and the daughters in the faith of their mother.HI I am a curran from ramelton and was showing this to my farther last night and he has a great knowledge of the family history so I will sit down and try and get information from him
They had 7 children born alive, by 1911 6 were still living. They were all born in Ramelton as far as I can tell, but not too sure about the birthplace of the 2 eldest, Joseph and Catherine Ellen, they may have been born in All Saints parish.
Patrick's father was Charles Curran, Catherine's father was Joseph Stevenson.
Charles died at Roughan, Ramelton 1917 and is buried in Tully graveyard.
Catherine died at Clooney, Ramelton 1914 and is buried with her Stevenson ancestors in the old Presbyterian/Church of Ireland graveyard in Church Street, Ramelton.
Can anyone link to these families? The Stevensons have links to Buchanan and Ferguson in Ramelton.
One of Patrick and Catherine's daughters married James Black, Church of Ireland faith, they had a son, James born about 1896.
