Rev Traill’s census of Ballintoy in 1803 has 3 Lamont/Lamond households listed. You can find it on Bill McAfee’s site under 19th century census subtitutes:

you probably know these sources for Lamont in ballintoy civil parish but just in case
1824 Lamont, John Townland: Templastragh Year: 1824 this townland includes Portbradden to the east ,then extends westwards to Dunseverick harbour. Whitepark road A2 runs through south end of townland,
from http://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/antrim/tithe-applotments/ballintoy-parish.php
the originals are in PRONI Belfast and sometimes have maps as well as land description

BROUGHGAMMON townland is south of Ballintoy village

LAMONT JOHN ANTRIM BALLINTOY BALLYNASTRAID map ref 4
Ballynastraid townland running southwards starts on the coast just underneath Portbradden
Whitepark road A2 runs through north end of townland . I noted its in Croagh DED for later Lamont records eg 1901/1911 census
my reason for giving map references to griffiths is the extra value obtained by looking this up in the townland of the map [given as the last heading for each entry on http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/
Lamonts in Co antrim in www.ancestryireland.com
GenesReunited has before 1829 the last name on each entry is the treeholder so you maybe one of them
