John Gilmour was the son of Alexander Gilmour and Mary Muir who married April 26, 1822 in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland; the grandson of John Gilmour and Sarah Brown.

John married Anna Goudie on March 6, 1847 in Kilmaurs, Ayrshire, Scotland. Along with the linked children's graves, Ayrshire records show the couple had 2 offspring who did not reach maturity: Ann (b April 8, 1856 in Dreghorn) and Samuel Reid (b Jan 2, 1865 in Stevenston).

I have not found John and Anna's immigration records. The following entry is the last count in the British census with information from the census:
