Joan, I have a copy of the passengers on board the Prince of Wales 1813, by the Lord Selkirk Association of Rupert's Land. It shows #69 as Robert Gunn: Piper from Kildonan and his sister Mary. (no ages given). According to these records they did not stay in the settlement after 1815. I don't know where 'Ireland' came from.
