   Hugh Gilmour, 24, Glasgow Lanarkshire, shipyard labourer
   wife Alice Gilmour, 22, Alexandria Dumbartonshire
   daughter Rose Ann Gilmour, 7, Alexandria Dumbartonshire

More details will be on 1911 Scottish census (Scotland's People website)

Elizabeth Gilmour 1907
Alice Gilmour 1909

Hi, Ev and Aghadowey thank you for your responses. I do have the censuses and am trying to find info which is more recent. The 2 deaths will give me a starting point. Thank you both, Kim

Your original post gave no idea of when any of the family were born (even though you said you'd all the births for the children) so I filled in that information so that anyone reading the topic could get an idea of the time period involved.

As the children were born 1894-1911 or so you will need to search for possible deaths, marriages, etc. on Scotland's People website.

I came across an online tree which went into quite a bit of detail but there may be others.
