Hello Dermot

This may be the Thomas McGeechan you are looking for but spelt McGahan and M'Gahan:

From LDS online Civil Birth Indexes:

Thomas M'Gahan, Registration district: Belfast,
Film no. 101048, Volume 6, Page 305

From Ulster Historical Foundation (UHF) website:
Birth search on Surname: McGahan
Father's name: Owen McGahan
Mother's name: Margaret Finlay

Results 2 entries for : Thomas McGahan, 1871, Co Antrim

IFHF website: Shows entries are Church Baptism and Civil Birth for Thomas McGahan, 1871, Co Antrim, father: Owen McGahan (when searched on the father's name).
