That is very interesting, Sinann. So  Henry's wife was Elizabeth and he had a daughter Jane. Also, Margaret who was granted permission to handle the estate. And William who was present at death.
thank you so very much.
I just looked up Jane's death  and she was a spinster, age 40, and brother Thomas was present at death. Building up the tree.

I think that I have found the right Henry's birth which was about 1808 in Kilcronaghan Parish. found a Henry baptised Jan 29, 1807 in Kilcronaghan Parish. His  parents were Henry Leacock and Jane Stuart.  I think Henry may have married Elizabeth Young abt. 1842ish (wife was Elizabeth and possibly surname was Young) and we know he had children Margaret, Jane, Thomas,William and Elizabeth. We know of child Elizabeth from Margaret's will of 1920. Daughter Elizabeth married John Coulter mar 7, 1872 in Draperstown. They had a daughter Mary Young Coulter which re-enforces belief that Henry married Elizabeth Young. I didn't find Mary's dob on irishgenealogy. Not sure why - abt 1884.

Very good. When I don't find the baptism under the expected name, I usually check the unnamed baptisms. I guess I slipped up this time. Thank you

When I read Henry Leacock's daughter Margaret Leacock's will written in 1916 even though Margaret died in 1920, basically she names as beneficiaries all the sons and daughters of her sister Elizabeth Coulter and specifies that they are nieces and nephews.  But I can't figure out Bella Leacock Clarke of Tobermore's relationship and the relationship is not specified. Elizabeth did have another daughter Jane Helena Patterson Coulter born 1873 who is not mentioned in the will - perhaps she married a Clark/Clarke. But why wouldn't she be specified as a niece if so. And shouldn't it be Jane Clarke? So likely not a niece. Any thoughts?

I found an Isabella Leacock, born Tobermore, in 1875 to Hugh Leacock and Mary Fields. However, Isabella married Robert Laverty in 1902. Wonder if she remarried. And what was the relationship  to Margaret Leacock, daughter of Henry. Hugh's father was Samuel but I don't have mother as yet.
