Derrychrier is a townland in Banagher Parish, Co.Londonderry (it means possibly something like oak grove of swampy place).

There's a family of Scotts living there in 1901 census- although they don't seem to be there in 1911:

PRONI lists a Will for a Payne of Derrychrier-
The Will of Jane Payne late of Lismacarrol County Londonderry Widow who died 23 November 1895 was proved at Londonderry by Hemy Wilson of Derrychrier and John Payne of Lismacarrol Farmers the Executors.

Thanks aghadowey . I think that is her brother on 1901. I have also found him on 1911 living somewhere else.

I had a look at Proni but wasnt sure how to use the search, can you help please?

Mary... I found that birth for Fanny & also one for her possible brother (on 1901) on familysearch but I could not find a marriage for her parents. Would you mind telling me where you found this?

Thanks so much for all your help.

Go to this part of PRONI site-
http://www.proni.gov.uk/index/search_the_archives/will_calendars/wills_search.htm
Then put in 'Derrychrier' in Full Abstract: box and you should see link to those details.
