Just a 'maybe', but on 19 April 1922 in Ballyarnett Presbyterian Church, Henry Johnston Bennett, a clerk from Hawkin Street in Derry, married Sarah Stewart of 'Ballugery' (Balloughry?), the bride's father was William Stewart, a labourer, and the groom's was John Massey Bennett, a manager, the witnesses to the marriage were William Huffington and Ruby Woods.

Here's the Bennett family:

Londonderry Sentinel, 21 October 1924: BENNETT - October 10, 1924, at Thornhill Cottage, the wife of H.J. Bennett, a daughter.
Londonderry Sentinel, 25 January 1927: BENNETT - To the wife of Henry J. Bennett, Thornhill Cottage, a son.
Londonderry Sentinel, 19 August 1939: August 14, 1939, to the wife of Henry J. Bennett, Thornhill Cottage, Londonderry, a daughter.

If the above births are for the correct folk, then a number of hits come back in searches for 'Thornhill Cottage', eg. what may be a daughter to this couple appears as a bridesmaid in a photo in the Londonderry Sentinel of 16 July 1958,  there is a reference to a possible son in the Derry Journal of 23 June 1954, also to a 'second daughter' getting married in the Londonderry Sentinel of 13 March 1954, also to a six year old daughter in the Londonderry Sentinel of 5 February 1946, I can pm names and other details if you like.
