Thomas J Gough (Ireland to Illinois, USA)

I'm researching my wife's family and have found one thread which runs
through the Gough family, who lived in Portadown around the 1840s or
1850s. It appears that Thomas James Gough, who was born there in 1846,
had at least the following siblings: a brother James, a sister Margaret
and another sister who married Joseph Parks. Thomas James Gough moved
to Newcastle, England to work and traveled to the US in June of 1867 on
a cattle boat. He ultimately settled in state of Illinois. I'm
interested in finding out more about these Irish roots and would like
any suggestions on how to research deeper, or any direct connections.

Thanks for any suggestions.
