My g g grandfather was Henry Black who was born in Grange (?), Tyrone, Ireland sometime in the early 1800's and died 9/16/1878. He and his wife Ruth (last name unknown)had at least 3 daughters: Anne, b. 1830; Mary, b. 1840, and Sarah. All three daughters worked on the household staff of Newtown Quaker School in Waterford as young adults. Anne Black married Edward Garnet, a superintendent of the school in 1866, and Mary Black married Walter Willmott, a teacher at the school (my great grandfather) in 1867. That is all I know about the Black family, and I would greatly appreciate any leads about how I could find additional information. Thanks!
