Her parents were John Stewart and Mary McCaughrin.  They lived in
Killymuck.  She was born in 1854.
Paternal grandparents were James Stewart and Betty Fulton, Maternal
grandparents were Andrew McCaughrin and Nancy Stewart.

Hi Rosemary

I'm tracing my family in Drumnacannon, and I'm looking for the connection of

the Stewarts with Mulhollands or Crocketts.

Do you have any information about Mary Matilda Stewart's family?
