Hi Richard,
My guess would be that Margaret's parents were Colin Chalmers (or Chambers) and Agnes
Baird and that she was Christened 11 Jun 1795, Low Church, Paisley.
It seems William and Margaret had at least 3 daughters. The eldeest one was Agnes. If
they followed Scottish naming traditions this would mean that Margaret's mother was
Agnes too.
I searched IGI for a Margaret Chalmers b. 1790 /- 5 years and came up with the VERY
likely one above. If Margaret lived on until after 1855 in Scotland, you should be able
to find her death record which may be able to confirm her parents names.
John
