In comparision to his six-foot frame, five-foot-tall Mary was tiny. In 1921, about a year before their marriage, Stephen visited Ireland for the first time when Mary brought him to meet her family in Co. Carlow. After they married, Mary and Stephen lived in East Acton, and later at 12 Ullswater Road (which Stephen designed and built) in Barnes in London. <br> <br> Around 1948, after her eldest three daughters had moved to Ireland, Mary brought Brigie, the youngest, to Dublin to join her sisters. Mary's plan was to help her daughters settle in to their new home in Clonskeagh after which she would return to London. However while in Ireland her health began to deteriorate and it was discovered she had cancer. She never made it back to London, and died in Dublin aged only 52.</p> </blockquote> </td> </tr></table><table BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=5 WIDTH="100%" > <tr VALIGN=TOP> <td> <a href="images/1300.JPG" > <img SRC="images/1300.JPG" BORDER=0 height=107 width=100></a></td> <td><p>Mary married <b><a name="19"></a>Stephen HUSSEY</b>, son of James HUSSEY and Jane Frances BUTLER, on 22 Aug 1922 in Bagenalstown, Co. Carlow. Stephen was born on 25 Jul 1895 in Hammersmith, London. He died on 7 Sep 1978 in Dublin. He was buried in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin.</p> <blockquote><p>Stephen grew up in Hammersmith, Kensington and Chelsea. Money was short, and he had to leave school at the age of 11 or 12 to help financially in the upbringing of his younger brothers and sisters. He's listed, aged 15, in the 1911 census as a builder's clerk. <br> <br> In 1914, at the beginning of World War I, Stephen joined the Royal Engineers Regiment of the British Army - the 'sappers', as they were known - and was sent to France. Sappers endured the most atrocious conditions and were always the last to leave an area when a retreat was taking place, blowing up roads and bridges behind them so as to slow up pursuit by enemy forces. During one such British evacuation, Stephen carried a wounded man to safety on his back, under gunfire, and was awarded the Military Medal.<br> <br> After the war, Stephen was trained as a builder by his grandfather, Thomas Hussey, and his uncle, Will Hussey. Stephen later formed a partnership with a Mr. Worman (Worman and Hussey), eventually setting up his own building company, Hussey Bros. (Builders) Ltd., on Queensway, Bayswater, London, with his brothers, Martin and Austin. The company was mostly involved in the building of churches, schools and convents, and for many years, Hussey Bros. had a maintenance contract with Westminster Cathedral. During World War II, once the German air assault on London started, the brothers worked mostly under official government contract on emergency repair and safety building work. After the war, the company built several modern churches.<br> <br> In 1947, Stephen and his wife, Mary, decided that their daughters would be better off living in Ireland, and so the girls moved to Dublin, the plan being that Stephen and Mary would initially remain in London and eventually retire to Dublin. Stephen and Mary sold their home in Barnes, moved into a flat over the premises of Hussey Bros. in Bayswater, and &nbsp;purchased a house in Roebuck Road in Clonskeagh for their daughters. However on an extended visit to the girls' new home, Mary became ill and died in Dublin.<br> <br> After Mary's death, Stephen visited Dublin more and more frequently. In 1957, with Maureen married, and Una and Brigie about to be married, he decided to sell the house on Roebuck Road, and a smaller house on Cedarmount Road in Mount Merrion was purchased. In the 1960s Stephen retired to Dublin, and for the remainder of his life he lived with Sheila at 14 Cedarmount Road.</p> </blockquote> </td> </tr></table><p>They had the following children. </p> <blockquote><table border="0" cellspacing="7"> <tr><td valign=top>+</td> <td valign=top>35</td> <td valign=top>F</td> <td valign=top align=right>i</td> <td><a name="6C"></a> <a href="murg05.htm#6"><b>Maureen HUSSEY</b></a> was born on 5 Jul 1924.

She was buried on 30 Jun 2003 in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin.<br> <br>Sheila grew up in Barnes in London where she was educated at a small French convent about a mile from her home. Barnes was heavily bombed during World War II and Sheila and her family spent much time in the air-raid shelter built by her father under the garage of their home.<br> <br> Sheila had an interesting encounter during World War II: one afternoon, &nbsp;having just returned from school, Sheila was sent by her mother to run some errands in Hammersmith. She was waiting at a bus stop in Barnes and, as usual, there were many army vehicles passing by. One of them, a large U.S. Army car with flags, stopped and a large, middle-aged officer sitting in the back of the vehicle and sporting an impressive array of medals, offered Sheila a lift. Sheila hopped in beside his driver and on the short trip to Hammersmith Broadway she and the officer chatted about school and her favourite subjects. It was only the next day, when she looked at the front page of the newspaper and saw a photograph of the same officer who had offered her the lift, that Sheila realised she had met General Dwight D. Eisenhower.<br> <br> After leaving school, Sheila started work in the Irish Passport Office at the Irish Embassy in London. Some time later, Sheila acted, unknowingly, as a matchmaker for two of her sisters: a group of young Irish civil servants had been sent from Dublin to augment the staff at the Irish Passport Office, and among them were Cormac Gordon and Michael Roantree. Sheila's mother, remembering how lonely she had felt when she had first arrived in London from Ireland, told Sheila to invite the newcomers to tea on Sundays. And that was how Sheila's sister Maureen met her future husband, Cormac. Another sister, Una, would later marry Michael's brother Tom. Sheila herself never married.<br> <br> After Sheila moved to Dublin in 1947 with her sisters, she worked briefly in advertising and then moved on to publishing and some freelance journalism. She then spent a number of years in the now-defunct Irish News Agency, after which she joined Coras Trachtála (the Irish Export Board) and worked for many years in public relations and press work. She lived on Cedarmount Road, Mount Merrion, Co. Dublin and in her retirement became an active member of the Green party.</td> </tr></table></td> </tr> <tr><td valign=top>+</td> <td valign=top>37</td> <td valign=top>F</td> <td valign=top align=right>iii</td> <td><a name="63C"></a> <a href="murg05.htm#63"><b>Una HUSSEY</b></a> was born on 1 Oct 1928.
