Hi Jila
Thanks again for input.
Since I posted the original request for info in June 2006 I have extensively researched my grandmother's Dennison family. Caroline Dennison was that grandmother (John Stewart Anderson being my grandfather). William Dennison and Mary Anne are my g grandparents. William died on 12.4.1914 and Mary Anne on 29.3.1923. Both are buried in Sligo. Apart from my grandmother the daughters moved initially to Lisburn in Northern Ireland where they ran a baby clothes shop and then moved on to Bangor in Northern Ireland. The son went to Canada then back to Ireland then on to England then retired to Bangor to join his sisters in old age. My grandmother Caroline and the son, William, were the only siblings who married.
You may have picked up your info from www.andersonsofbroughane.info a website for which I am jointly responsible.
If you send me your email address on a personal message I can let you have a copy of my research.

Thanks for the reply.

The following may be of some help to you.

My grandfather James Wallace was Mary Jane Andrews second cousin and he also worked as a farm hand for his great uncle Sam Hutchinson. James Wallace eventually married Margaret (Maggie) Stewart of Ballybrick House in 1909. They set up home in a farm just up the road past Sam Hutchinson's farm only a couple of hundred yards from Fernhill House. They left the area in 1918. The pregnancy of Mary Jane must have been a major scandal at the time. The Andrews were socially much more up market than my grandfather and they probably blocked any possibility of marriage.

Thanks for the help
