I know that it's been quite a while since you sent your message, but I have just come across it! Samuel and Mary were my husband's Great-Grandparents. Samuel died in N Ireland in 1897, but I had been unable to find out what happened to Mary and most of her family. Now I know they had moved to England! Their son, Samuel James, became a teacher like his father and remained in N.Ireland.

Mary Bailey b. c1853 (or 1850?) married Samuel Moore 31.03.1875 at Dungannon 1st Presb. Church, Drumglass, Co Tyrone.

Age at time of marriage given as 22 but at bottom just states full over 21
Address given as Dungannon, Drumglass while Samuel's address is Belfast (which could tie in with some children being born later in Belfast)
On 1911 census widowed aged 60 place of birth Montreal, Canada.(maybe because father Robert was in Militia serving abroad at that time?) Living in Forest Gate, West Ham with 3 children and a boarder.
Poss Birth reg: GRO REGIMENTAL BIRTH INDICES (1761 to 1924) 1761 - 1924 Mary Bailey Montreal 1850 regt R.A. vol R.A. 17 page 152.

Samuel was a school teacher in Newton Stewart Tyrone, in 1880's. fathers name was Alexander (from marr record).
Any ideas on how I can find anything else about Mary and Samuel or their parents?
