William Gillespie and Eliza Carr, Donegal Ireland

Looking for any information on the family of William Gillespie and Eliza or Elizabeth Carr from Donegal County. I think they were from the Dunfanaghy area of Northern Ireland.

One known daughter, Mary Jane (sometimes referred to as Jane Mary)b. abt 1842 and married Samuel Gaston Dec 2, 1862 in the Ballymore Church, Clondahorky Parish, Dunfanaghy, Donegal County, Ireland. Samuel and Mary Jane immigrated to Canada about 1882-1883. According to her marriage and death registry information she would have been born in 1842. According to cemetery records she was born in Ireland in 1835, died at 88 years of age on May 19, 1923 and was buried in Toronto. Samuel and Mary Jane are my great great grandparents.

Other children may include Charles and Pearl Gillespie.

Would love to hear from anyone with any information on this family.
