Thank you so much for looking. I know the records for Dromore church were destroyed in a fire in the late 1800's so this will be a brick wall forever. It is a bleak cold winter's night in New Zealand.

The civil records should still be available but have checked Irish Genealogy & GRONI without finding anything yet.

Thank you for your help. You are one jump ahead of me. The McCormicks were next on my research. I had found John McCormick and Matilda Gilmour on the census records and their marriage but had not dug any deeper yet. You have made my next steps much easier. It is always amazes me how many wonderful researchers are out there ready and willing to help other genealogists.
