This is a long shot, but does anyone have any info about a female Rochford (first name unknown) but whose married name was Fenlon, that was killed when she was hit by a train in Ballywilliam, Co Wexford, around 1919? Her husband was Hugh Fenlon, and they had four children. I know I don't have a first name for this lady, so this is a bit vague, but I was hoping if any there are any Rochfords who have heard a story like that in their family, they could get in contact. Many thanks.

Hi Jessica
On 28/12/1903 a Katie Rochford Started school in templeudigan school [now closed] it would have been the school serving parts of Ballywilliam.
She had Previously attended Gussrane school She was 13yearsI have also some dates for fenelon children before that. So Gussrane Parish might be worth looking in to. Fenlon seems to have been spelt with an extra e Regards Ann
