relatives of william logue of limavady

Hi,

Thank you for your message.

Have you tried looking at the 1901/1911 census records to see if any family members were still in the area at the time? You can search these here: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

You could also look into Church records for information on the family. Most Catholic records are held locally. One website which you may find helpful is the Irish Times where they give an overview of what records are available in specific parishes. For Drumachose/Limavady check:

For Church of Ireland records check:
