I haven't yet attempted to delve into the ancestry of my ancestor Daniel Gilmore (c1841 in Belfast, father Mortimer Gilmore a carpenter). However, I do know that he served in the Royal Scots in the early 1870s and that he and his wife Elizabeth (nee Quinton) had a daughter called Agnes who was born in Mullingar in 1876 or earlier. I also suspect that Agnes died before the next Census in England & Wales.
Quite simply: why would Daniel and his wife have been in Mullingar in 1876? Was there a local barracks? Was it used by the Royal Scots?
Regards
Dave

I think perhaps this link to a site about Mullingar and its history
might also be of interest.
