Looking for ancestors of Patrick and Ellen Gillen from Co. Derry,Ballyhacket. The closest city being Coleraine. They lived in Ballyhacket from approx. 1830-1900. Their childrens names were Patrick, James, Can, Robert, Mary, Ellen and Sarah Anne. Robert was in the military and James came to the United States in approx. 1850's. Sarah Anne was disabled and died at a young age. I have her death record. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
