Ireland / Harris Hunter, Ireland

Hello
I am wondering if anyone else has come across my ancestor Harris Hunter and his wife Elizabeth Hunter (nee Lamont). I only have their names from the record of their daughter Elizabeth Hunter Campbell's death in Barnhill Poorhouse on 29.06.1897. Harris doesn't even have an occupation listed, I doubt there's any "gentlemen" in our family though!
Elizabeth H Campbell may have had a brother John Hunter, as the 1851 census shows John & Sarah Hunter (both b about 1824 in Ireland) and their son John living with her and husband Nathaniel Campbell and family. May also be a cousin, as the death record I found for John Hunter shows parents as John Hunter and Martha Allan.
I wish I even knew which area of Ireland to look at!
