Looks like Mary Marron died in 1897 from the same condition as her brother John, a type of tuberculosis.

Found another child of Michael and Margaret, Mary b.1879

Acording to the 1911 census they had 10 children 5 of whom were alive at the time.

Makes me wonder - husband and two children die within a span of a year, if Margaret might have moved to Scotland along with William?  She is not in the 1901 census though with him and his family.

Looks like the name is spelt Marin in that record.

Phthisis is pulmonary TB or consumption
'Pulmonary phthisis or pulmonary tuberculosis is perhaps one of the most widespread diseases to which mankind is subject. It occurs in persons of all ages and in every country, and in all conditions of life'.
and
'Tuberculosis disease, or phthisis (ϕθίσις, the Greek word for consumption), was named by the father of allopathic medicine, Hippocrates (c. 460–370 BCE), because the disease appeared to consume the affected person through substantial weight loss and wasting'

Margaret is still alive and in Tullywiggan Co Tyrone as at the 1911 census (Found by Heywood)

Yes I forgot, amended my original post to remove that comment.

Sorry, I seemed to be lost in this thread about the 1911 Ireland census and whether or not Margaret was alive at that time. If she was I would presume she would be in County Londonderry, which was a part of Antrim at the time, and not in Tyrone. Can someone find that info again?  Thank you!

This is the ref to the 1911 census for Margaret Marron. It was referenced by Heywood.

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tyrone/Tullaghoge/Tullywiggan/859933/

She is in Tullywiggan in Co Tyrone.  She states she is born in Co Antrim. 

ETA There is a death certificate showing she died on 17th May 1911 in Tullywiggan

ETA2 Ballymacpeake seems to be about 23 mile NE of Tullywiggan.

I guess by listing the locations in the BDM records you will be able to get a sense of when moves were made.  I have found using an excel spreadsheet makes it easy to do this 'ordering'

That is not the Margaret Marron we have been researching from Antrim/Derry.
You posted a possible death in Tyrone.
I posted a census entry to discount her.
There was the difficulty with the age so further post to counteract that.

The main thing is - forget County Tyrone, please.

This is the one I was trying to link to William

I am not sure why there is all the white space. 
Just confirming to look for Ballymacpeake? 

What a pity the census for Margret Marron gives no details about children and length of marriage.
