Humphrey’s Brother George

Ralph shows George Gilmore of Stonehall being born before 1828, and having one child, Jane Gilmore who married John Iriwn.  He also shows George Gilmore of Carrinageenah and Stonehall, (son of Hugh); born before 1826, married to Margaret Pettypiece on July 13, 1846 and having a daughter Rebecca Gilmore of Stonehall born in 1867.

Marvin has his birth around 1810, and I found an Irish census for 1901 showing his age as 90, that would make his birth about 1820.  He died in Sligo around 1904.  His wife Margaret was born around 1826 and died around 1899 in Sligo, Ireland.  (In case you are confused, James Gillmore’s daughter Margaret Gillmore married a Thomas Pettipiece, and this George married Margaret Pettypiece; I imagine there is a relationship, but I haven’t researched it).

I have found information on 8 children: Anne born in Sligo in 1847, Jane born in Sligo in 1849, John born in 1855, Maria born in 1858 in Sligo, Sarah born in 1865, Rebecca born in 1867 in Stonehall, Sligo, and Eliza, and Margaret.

Eliza died unmarried according to Marvin’s letters.

Margaret married William Lockhart and had no children as of 1894. 

Anne was born about 1847 in Stonehall, Sligo, Ireland.  She died in 1919 in Sligo, Ireland.  She married John Sherlock, 1830-1905.  They had 6 children:

     John Sherlock, 1878-1902, Sligo

     George Sherlock, 1880-1919, Sligo

     Rebecca Sherlock, 1882-1932, Sligo

     Sarah Anne Sherlock, 1885-1947, Sligo

     Emily Jane Sherlock, 1887-1958, Sligo

     Fanny Florence Sherlock, born abt 1891, Sligo, died in

1957, Toronto, Canada.  She came to Canada in 1920, after her mother’s death. She married Albert Hamilton in 1920, in York, Ontario, Canada.  They had two children, John and Margaret.  Margaret had a daughter, and we are a DNA match.  Which is great, because it

supports my research on this branch of the Gilmore’s.
