Moores from Donegal

Looking for Mary Moore b1876 , parents Robert Moore and Rebecca Hegarty, Ralmeton, Milford, Co Donegal. She came to Scotland with her sister Rebecca and other siblings according to the poor law record for  Parish of Old Kilpatrick Scotland, in 1896. The poor law record states she came over to Scotland over 5 years ago , so I am guessing  she  arrived around 1890c .

Any info on the family would be appriecated as I have hit a brick wall. I have most of her siblings and Mary's birth certificates , sorced from Irish Genealogy.

I located the 1854 civil marriage record for Robert Moore and Rebecca Hegarty. The names of the fathers of the bride and groom were shown on the record.

I found civil birth records for Rebecca, Samuel, John and Mary. There also was a child born in 1868 but don't know the name.

I believe there were children between 1854 and 1865 but those records are not available on the subscription site Roots Ireland.
