Many thanks Rathmore, I'm not sure if Florinda is one of our Andersons.
Thanks Aghadowey, I never even thought of checking for a Will.

I've looked up Will and checked out Thomas Morrow, who appeared to live close by according to the Census 1901/1911 in Legaltan.
Andrew N. Anderson (Nixon) is 37 in 1901 Census a farmer and a grocer in Ballyshannon. Can anyone help me with the connection to Thomas. Is Andrew a son or a brother, again any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you Rathmore for trying to get me information on the Anderson family. I have just spent today at PRONI in Belfast and returned home cross eyed looking at Microfiche of Ballyshannon churches. I've taken note of a lot of information, I just need to sort through it now.
The John Anderson I'm looking for was 20 on the 1901 census, so for now I'll keep on searching!

Many thanks, Betty

Trying again with the Anderson family....
After a day at PRONI I need to revise my information on the Anderson family.
Thomas Anderson married Catherine Moore on the 31 July 1878 in Ballyshannon,
His father was John Anderson, policeman and her father was William Moore, a farmer Legaltin. Witnessed by Lizzie Jane Anderson and George Patton.
I would appreciate any information on John Anderson and family and William Moore and his family.
Many thanks, Betty
