Drumachose baptismal register contain only two children to a Wm & Jane Loughlin before 1830:

Catharine dau of Wm & Jane Laughlin Parish of Ballykelly Jan'y 24 1814

Robert son of Wm & Jane Lochlin, Broglasco, T. Finlagan Feb'y 5th 1823

The address given is Broglasco in Tamlaght Finalagan parish sometimes called Ballykelly parish. Ballykelly is a village 2 miles from Limavady. I would also check the registers for Ballykelly Church of Ireland which go back to 1798.

I also did an advanced search in the Derry genealogy database for Tamlaght Finlagan parish church

I found one match for a baptism of a child namely John to parents William & Jane Loughlin dated to 1820. There did not appear to be any other children baptised to parents Wm & Jane. I used Loughlin in the surname search.

Thank you so much.   I have found the name to be spelt so many different ways - even MacLag - Lachlan, Laughland.   It could be a difficult one.
