My Great Grandfather was William Gilchrist b 1858 County Antrim his father was Hugh Gilchrist and mother was Jane McNeice, William Gilchrist moved from Ireland to Scotland and married in 1881 to Agnes McMullen who was also born in Antrim Ireland, on their wedding certificate William was shown as a Widow but have been unable to discover who his first wife was.  the 1881 Scotland cencus shows William and Agnes living  Civil parish: Greenock Middle  County: Renfrewshire  but ny the 1891 the family had moved to England to West Ham, Essex.  William and Agnes had six girls one of which was born in Antrim Ireland she was Elizabeth (Lizzie) Gilchrist b 1893.

Any help to find my Irish ancestry in Antrim Ireland would be so appreciated, living in Australia I am not able to visit Ireland myself.

Regards

Sylvia
