Could the town be Maghera in County Londonderry?

An index for County Londonderry has the following births around the years you mention ( unfortunately the index only gives an indication of county not parish/town etc)....you could probably enquire about records via  the GRO in Belfast http://www.groni.gov.uk/index.htm or contact the Londonderry Genealogy Centre who provide a full search service for a fee, their details are
E-Mail : info[at]irishgenealogy.ie 
Website : http://www.irishroots.net/derry.htm .
please replace [at] with @
Hope this is of some help.
