Not known at moment. She was second wife, all children born to first wife, so I suppose it is possible that she was buried in Scotland.

It is strange that he was taken back to Ireland if his wife was still living in Scotland

Could it just be a stone in his memory that is erected in Ireland

Have just read these notes. There was a Chalmers street in Greenock. It was just off the south side of  Port Glasgow Road below Gibshill. As it was so close the the boundary between Greenock and Port Glasgow some people from the area were buried in Port Glasgow cemetary.
