BiographyBorn in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on 7 April 1802, he was ordained a priest on 9 June 1827. He was appointed the Coadjutor Vicar Apostolic of the Eastern District and Titular Bishop of Limyra by the Holy See on 28 July 1837 and consecrated to the Episcopate on 22 July 1838. The principal consecrator was Bishop Peter Augustine Baines, and the principal co-consecrators were Bishop Andrew Scott and Bishop James Kyle.[1][2] St. Margaret's ConventIn 1834 Gillis and Ann Agnes Trail founded the first post-Reformation convent in Scotland.[3] For over 150 years it was well known in Edinburgh as St Margaret's Convent and School under the ministry of the Ursulines of Jesus.[4] In the 1830s, the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland was not yet established. James Gillis as Apostolic Vicar of the Eastern District of Scotland wanted a convent and school built there to cater for the Catholics in Edinburgh. The Ursulines were asked to start the convent and funds were provided for a chapel.[7] Following the death of Bishop Andrew Carruthers on 24 May 1852, Gillis automatically succeeded as the Vicar Apostolic of the Eastern District.[1][2] In 1863, this chapel went on to house a relic, given to them by Bishop Gillis, of St. Margaret of Scotland.[5] He died in office on 24 February 1864, aged 61.[1][2] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book |last=Brady |first=W.
