One of the witnesses in Matilda's marriage record is Eliza McGrory.

https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1901/10299/5748857.pdf

A Matilda McGrory was born in Derry Workhouse on 27 December 1880, mother Catherine McGrory.

https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/birth_returns/births_1880/02852/2045008.pdf

A Catherine McGrory (nee Gallagher), married John McGrory, and had a son William James McGrory born on 9 September 1879 at Bridge End, Burt, Donegal.

They apparently had a daughter called Sarah, present at their death, Catherine died on 7 Feb 1895 at Castlequarter, and John on 16 November 1897 at Carnaghan, but I can't find her birth record.
