Thanks Kingskerswell for that but,unfortunately there is no Robert and Catherine or Margaret and Charles Doherty.God, they are so elusive,where have they gone!
It was far easier to get all the Dohertys and theres a million and one of them!
If you come across any births that would be brilliant also

net64, I appreciate that these posts are from such a long time ago and you may have found all you need to know about these people by now. If not, they're my relatives though I'm still researching them as they've been quite a problem to find.
My GGGF is Robert Limerick who married Fanny (Frances) McClenaghan in 1855 in Moville. Their children are Catherine born 1856, Margaret 1860, Robert 1863, Sarah Jane 1865 (My GGM), Charles 1868, Mary 1870, Fanny 1873, Joseph 1875. All were baptised in Moville parish except for Joseph who was baptised in Iskaheen Parish, closer to Derry. This is where it gets complicated as Joseph was registered as Limerick at his baptism and his parents surnames given as Limerick but on his birth record his surname is given as Lamberton, both records say address is Three Trees, Moville, parents are Robert and Fanny, and the dates are right. The birth record for Lamberton says his mothers maiden name was McClenaghan so it seems right. It seems the family changed their surname to Lamberton and moved into Derry around then.
