| Transcript | 30th 1898 Joshua E. Peel & Son Solicitors English St., Armagh Gentlemen : Your letter of 21st of July was not answered as promptly as it should have been, but I answered it as fully as I could giving all the information in my power to do. I suppose you received it within a few days after writing me your letter of Octr 3rd. I was absent from the City some considerable time during the summer or your letter would have benn answered more promptly I failed to keep a copy of what I had written you but the substance is as follows : My mother's maiden name was Margaret Armstrong; she married James Gibson, my father Archibald Stevenson's mother maiden name was Elizabeth Armstrong they were sisters, and daughters of John Armstrong of [Crunnaught?] County Armagh. There was an illegitimate child born to Archibald's sister, she went by the name of McClain [McClean?] and subsequently became Mrs Brown. I supposed she was dead as I had been so informed but by whom I cannot say. I never knew of anyone in the family by the name of Loughead. I sincerely hope you have received before this, my former letter, giving all the information within my power to do, and that it was in time to answer all the legal purposes and requirements in the case. With kindest wishes I am Very truly yours Mrs Mary Martin for [J. Ade--er?] 1829 [Masber?] St. Philadelphia Penna [Pennsylvania?] |
