Her maiden name is not known for sure but is either Love or Lunney. It was most likely Lunney as there was a John Sprouls found in 1788 in Co Fermanagh living next to several Lunneys. She was likely born in Co Fermanagh, the stronghold of the Lunney family. She also couldn't have been born in 1761, according to the 1800 census she was born before 1755. Her and John's pillar stone reads she died at age 57, but this stone was placed well after her death in 1892, perhaps it was meant to read 67 years which would fit better with the evidence.
