I am searching for George McWilliams (born 1764) in Scotland, who married Margaret McCoy (born 1768) in County Down, Ireland. They emigrated to the US before 1800. Their children were: Phillip (born 1786), Hannah (born 1790), Elizabeth (born 1794), George (born 1797, probably in Pennsylvania). They moved from Pennsylvania to Guersney County or Belmont County, Ohio and then to Illinois. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Meri Schoof
