Hi List The Public Record Office, Balmoral Avenue, Belfast has the Londonderry Journal which commenced 1772, later known as the Derry Journal, has Births, deaths and Marriages listed. The Derry Sentinel commenced 1829. Both of these newspapers are on Microfilm. Some of them are hard to read because they are so old, so take a good magnifying glass with you. They are such a valuable source.
