• Notes

  Elizabeth Ridley was born about 1808 and died 14 May 1864. On July 5, 1826 she married Andrew Gillis , St. Salvator's Church of Ireland, Donagh Parish. They had five sons and 2 daughters. They lived on the Donagh Parish-based farmstead on which a descendent of Robert Gillis was living on when Benjamin Cole Gillis visited Ireland in 1910. Elizabeth's maiden last name was Ridley not Riddle as was previously thought, per the St. Salvator's Church registry baptismal records of the children of Andrew and Elizabeth (Ridley) Gillis (Andrew, son of Robert Gillis, brother of William John Gillis). In Elizabeth's death record, 14 May 1864, St. Salvator's Church Register,Glasslough Parish, Donagh Cty, Monoghan 2006 professional research also showed the same church's burial records cite Elizabeth's death age 56, "born around 1808," therefore thought to be Andrew's wife. This is the only verifiable marriage of the Gillis sons including William/Andrew/Robert in the church registers, acc. to 2006 research in Belfast. Marriage on 05 Jul 1826, St. Salvator's Church of Ireland, Donagh Parish. Witnesses per church records: William Watters, William Scott, John Riddle (Ridley).
