GILMORE FAMILY - CLOGHY, BALLYPHILIP, KIRKISTOWN, PRIESTOWN

DownBallyphilip (Down)

Hello, I wonder if you can help.  I am looking for information on Hugh Gilmore of Ballyphilip husband of Jane? and father of Hugh baptised 19 March 1854 and William baptised 12 Oct 1856 at Portaferry RC Church.

I am also looking for a Rose Breen born 1860 father John Breen b 1823 mother Eliza Shanks, who married a Hugh Gilmore

I also have another Hugh Gilmore born 1866 who married a Rose Breen born 1871 her mother was a Rebecca Breen. According to 1901 census they lived in Priestown.

I am wondering if these two families are related to each other and also to my Gilmore family in Cloghy and Kirkistown, I also wonder if Robert Gilmore Cloghy father of Francis baptised 14 Mar 1830 Balygalget RC Church.

The Gilmores keep popoing up everywhere.

Thank you

Winnie McLauchlan

On another gravestone , In loving Memory of Andrew Gordon Coulter, Silverbridge died June 1972 Aged 75

Both Gilmore and Coulter families lived in Crossmaglen area. Neither names are there now. I think Gilmore lived in the town land of Liscalgot, near Creggan Church
