Hi Lea I found some of my family from Loughgall at St Marks through RootsIreland http://www.rootsireland.ie/ You have to register, then the searches are free but it costs 5 euros per time to get the information. I have done a couple of searches and the name Jervis Johnston is found as a marriage in 1890 in Co Armagh and in 1891 in Co Antrim.
