Good Morning
Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and apologies for the delay in replying to your message.
As you can see from the link below, Lisnadill is a Civil Parish in Co. Armagh:
Records for the Church of Ireland Parish of Lisnadill have been indexed up to 1900 by Armagh Ancestry while the Roman Catholic records for Ballymacnab begin in 1820. There are some Church of Ireland registers available on the Church of Ireland website: http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42
There are some places where you can search online, however these websites do not have complete collections and many do not cover the period after 1900. I think your best course of action would be to find out as much information as possible about the Moffett family, in the hope that at some point you can link it together. Some graveyards in Armagh are also indexed at: http://www.irishgraveyards.ie/search_page.php ;
www.familysearch.org has a huge database of genealogical records including some church records for Ireland.
www.rootsireland.ie have a large collection of Irish Church records, however you have to pay to use this site.
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/ have begun a project to upload Irish church records to their site free of charge. However so far only Counties Dublin, Kerry, Carlow and parts of Cork have been covered.
