Workington Parish Register baptisms for ROSS 1814

[B Young]

I am searching for the bp of my 2xgt grandmother Margaret ROSS born in Feb 1814 (from a family Bible), said to come from Workington, and her parent's details, and any siblings.
She married in Ireland in 1834 and migrated to Australia in 1852. Any help much appreciated. Beryl

Colin, thankyou so much for those lookups. However my Margaret doesn't quite fit the Margaret bp 1810. It was stated that she was 20 when she married in 1834, also her age on their passenger list agrees with 1814. Are there any other ROSS at the time in Workington?  There is a possibility her family was non-conformist as she refused to attend the Church of Ireland and I know she was not Roman Catholic.  The names Daniel, Alexander or Elizabeth were not used for their children. Any suggestions?    Beryl

It would be useful to know where and when she died in Australia, and what information about her parents and birth is on her death certificate?
Who did she marry? What were the names of her children?
