Samuel Palmer married again just nine months after Rachel died. He married an Annie McGarry, whom I think was related at least by marriage to Sam. Maybe she came down to help with the children while Sam worked. He probably could keep the family together because he worked where he lived.
Quite soon after this marriage Annie and Sam and all Rachel's children moved to the Stationhouse in Bellarena, Limavady [See the Photograph below].
