It has the following records:
William KINCAID and Mary LONG had:
*A daughter (unnamed) b 2 Feb 1864, 0148 Glendermot, Londonderry, Ireland

Does anybody know where Glendermot is in the above information. I can't find it anywhere.

Celt:
I believe it is Glendermott,  Altnagelvin. I think this is in the Waterside area. Take a look at this site which has photo of cemetery and some transcriptions.  http://members.iinet.net.au/~sgrieves/cemeteries_ireland_2.htm#Glendermott%20Old%20Cemetery

Go to the Irish Church Photos section and there is a picture of the Presbyterian church there.

Try a "Google" search and you will find lots. Use variation of name and spelling.
Good luck,

Pat

If you go to

and scroll down to Glendermott you will find some helpful information about the parish (also known as Clondermot).
