Our Gillespies came from Northern Ireland. Ann Gillespie married Willian Forsythe and with children Margaret & John went to Lanarkshire, Scotland. William was killed in the mines aged 26, Ann & children went back to Ireland, but returned about 10 years later. Her Brother, Hugh Gillespie & family also came to Glasgow, Scotland. Is there anyone who has a connection to Ann and Hugh Gillespie and might have more information re Ireland.

do you have any dates? My husband's grandmother was Martha Gillespie. There are Hugh's in the family. Her father was Alexander. Lived in Hamilton, near Glasgow. I know some of the relatives were from Northern Ireland.
