I had a look, and decided that it was MORRISON and not HARRISON.

Checked out with the GV of 1862, which records (transcribed) John MORRISON jun and John MORRISON sen at 77c & 77d respectively, renting from Edward HILL.
[N.B. GV includes the Grange of Doagh (and hence most of Ballyclare townland) under the Parish of The Grange of Nilteen.]
 
WHITTLEY - Donegore, Ballycraigy, Newtownards, Guernsey, PALI
WHITTLE - Dublin, Glenavy, Muckamore, Belfast; Jamaica; Norfolk (Virginia), Baltimore (Maryland), New York
CHAINE - Ballymena, Muckamore, Larne
EWART, DEWART - Portglenone, Ballyclare
McAFEE, WALKER - Ballyrashane
