Margaret daughter of JOHN PORTER and ELIZABETH MULLEN. according to the 1901 and 1911 census gives her birth as 1889 which does make her 14?   The 1911 census says she 22 and unmarried..... so your Margaret obviously is not daughter of JOHN PORTER and ELIZABETH MULLEN!!

So your looking for a marriage of Margaret Porter from Carnamoyle to someone as yet unknown, yes?
Or it's the correct marriage and you just had her date of birth incorrect.
I don't see any children for them.
It could be they raised the two children living with them.

JOHN FERRIE was born Abt. 1857 in Donegal.  He married Margaret Porter on the 28 Apr 1904 aged 24 in BURT Co. Donegal, daughter of JOHN PORTER and Ann McIntyre  makes more sense......

The marriage I found to John Ferrie was wrong unless she got married when she was 15yr. So I was only told that she got married and can't find any information on her marriage/death or possible children a brick wall that's been with me for a few years. I think this is correct

Thought it might of interest to see what she looked like. I went through the photos I have of the Porters and written on the back of this one is:
Left is May her mother (Annie Docherty)to the right she only had one child. John Ferrie or Fox? beside Maggie holding the baby and Lizzie Porter to the right
