There is a marriage entry between a John Henry of Drumnaglogh (father William) and Sarah Slane of Makinney (father John Slane) in 1859 at St Luran's Church, Derriloran. There is no information to confirm this currently. But it would tie in nicely with the fact's that the father of Annie has now turned out to be John who was married to a Sarah Unknown.
