'UNKNOWN'

( - Bef 6 Nov 1882)

It is possible Seamus's wife's name was Ellen because his son and daughter-in-law Dan and Mary named their second daughter Ellen. There was a tradition at the time of namning the first or second daughter after the maternal or paternal grandmother. Dan and Mary's second daughter was named Johanna, after her maternal grandmother, suggesting that their first daughter, i.e. Ellen, would have been named after her paternal grandmother. Of course it could have been the case that Seamus's wife's name was Johanna, i.e. sharing the same name as Mary's mother.
