She had a brother named William.  She was the older of the two children.  She died due to a medical problem at the age of 61 on June 20th, 1925 in Ardvarness.

• Death Notes

  Death certificate shows she died of "Cardiac Failure Suddenly", and "of the labouring classes".  She resided in Ardvarness when she died.  John McClements, her son, of Ardvarness, was the informant.
  
  After her death, I received some of Aunt Sadie's photographs and one was of a gravestone with this written on the back:
  "Mum's
  Mum and Dad
  Englishtown
  Cemetary
  Near Coleraine"
  The stone says:
  "Erected
  In Memory of
  Samuel McClements
  Ballywilliam
  Who dies September 15th 1925
  Aged 58 years
  Also his wife
  Annabella McClements
  Who died June 20th 1925
  Aged 63 years"
  Ballywilliam is to the south of Ardvarness.
  

• General Notes

  From Balteagh according to marriage certificate.  Witnssed by a Daniel McKeown and a Mary McKeown - are they siblings?  No siblings found in Emerald Ancestors database of Civil births. 
  
  Now know that she probably has a cousin called Daniel - BUT, he was too young to witness her marriage - he was aged 6!. 
  
  Annabella is all one word on birth cert.  Father living in Letterloan when she was born.
