Welcome to RootsChat, Riddell.
According to the deaths index at www.scotlandspeople,gov.uk there is a death of a Mary Ann Taggart or Miller in Kilsyth in 1943. So she was born about 1870.
The index to the 1911 census in Kilsyth lists what looks like two Millar households consisting of Alex, 40; Elizabeth B, 36; Mary, 35; John, 32; Kathleen, 15; Minnie, 13; Mary L S, 3; Elizabeth A, 1; and Jenny, 0.
There are births of Mary Livingston Millar and Elizabeth Allan Millar in 1908 and 1909, mother's maiden surname Lockhart; and Jennie Millar, mother's maiden name Taggart, was born in Kilsyth in 1910. John Millar married Elizabeth Bryde Lockhart in Kilsyth in 1907.
However I am not seeing a marriage of Mary Taggart to Alexander Mill*r in the a marriages index at www.irishgenealogy.ie and I can't see Kathleen in the 1901 census in Ireland.
You need to go to www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk and invest in a few credits.
Use some of them to look at the birth certificate of Jennie Millar. This will tell you the date and place of her (and therefore Kathleen's) parents' marriage.
Use some more to look at Mary Taggart or Miller's death certificate. This will tell you if Alexander had or had not died before her, which will help to find his death, and it should tell you the full names of Mary's parents including her mother's maiden surname. Actually he is probably the Alexander Miller, mother's maiden surname Wilson, who died in Kilsyth in 1921 aged 62. His death certificate will tell you the full names of both his parents.
And you could also take a look at the original of the 1911 census, which might tell you where in Ireland they were all born.
Unrelated question - might the initials SBTB mean anything to you? A simple yes or no will suffice until you have made enough posts to use the Personal Message system.
