Can't see the marriage listed in Co. Derry but IGI lists 5 children:
1. James born 19 May 1870 Co. Londonderry
2. Hugh born 16 Aug.1871 Co. Londonderry
3. Eliza born 9 Apr1873 Co. Londonderry
4. Marie Margaret born 13 Dec,1876 Co. Londonderry
5. John born 6 Dec.1879 Taunnanure*, Co. Londonderry

* can't find a townland called Taunnanure but there's a Tamneymore (part of Londonderry City). Only townland in Co. Londonderry beginning with the letter T and ending in nure seems to be a Tullynure in Lissan parish.
