Biography
According to my dad, Ryburn R. Updike, John GILMOUR led the singing in the Scotch Presbyterian church (no organ) for many years (-Dale A. Updike, Nov. 24, 2014).
Shares the same set of maternal grandparents as his wife Isabella's first late husband Robert (Thomas Findlay and Elizabeth Meikle).

I am guessing this is a cropped out photo of John GIlmour. Do you have the original, full photo that this is from? I would love to see this. I have a wonderful photo of him as well, which I would love to share with you.
