Looking for information on Henry - if he was buried at Kilwaughter cemetery and his wife Matilda McFall?  His son Sir Robert McIlwaine 1871-1943 was my great grandfather.

I'm looking for more information on Sophia Mary Hannah who died in England 1939.  I wondered if anyone has more information on her birthplace in Kells Co Antrim, 1884 as well.  She would be my great grandmother.

By chance I have just come across this site. I am a grandson of Sir Robert McIlwaine of Rhodesia and if anyone is interested I have quite a bit of information about him and his family plus I have some family photographs. Regards.  Peter


Hello Peter, you are my mothers cousin, Peggy Clampit (nee Mcilwaine) and she was delighted to see you on this chat as she really wants to get in touch, as does my aunt Geraldine.  They've often wondered about you and where you ended up.  Lovely that you have many photos of Sir Robert and Lady Sophia, the Rhodesian Archives had some very nice pictures of them both.  I have a lot of newspaper cuttings from his death which my grandparents (Henry Gerard McIlwaine & Kay) kept, as well as the article posted in the Zimbabwe history books.  Of course our family also has Sir Robert's knighthood medal in safe keeping too. Please reach out to me if you can so I can put you in touch with mum if you are able (it is 6 years old) thanks
