Hi.
Found this George Gibson marriage in Killinchy, don't know if it's a relation of your Gibson, but it may work in.

George Gibson married Mary Kelly, on the 12 July 1869 in Killinchy Non Subscribing Presbyterian Church.

Is Gibson/Coey familar round Killinchy?.

Griffith's Valuation for the Parish of Killinchy 1863-4 lists a few families named Gibson but none named Coey. It does show a couple of Coeys from Ballydrain ... an agricultural / general  merchant named Coey from there delivered coal to our family when we were at Ballydorn during the 1940s.
 
James Coey, Ballydrain, Tullynakill 
Martha Coey, Ballydrain, Tullynakill
John Coey, Ballynamagna, Drumballyroney 
Patrick Coey, Castle Lane, Comber, Comber 
Thomas Coey, Bovennett, Aghaderg 
William Coey, Legananny, Aghaderg 
Samuel Coey, Legananny, Aghaderg

Welcome to Rootschat, MissSarah  :)
Ardsg started this topic in 2008 and may have found more details by now as lots of new information has become available online (much of it free) since then. They were online recently so fingers crossed they respond to your post.
