I am looking for information about Hamilton Peacock logan and his family. He married Jane davidson on 27 march 1816 at the presbyterian church killinchy. He and jane had 4 children mary (1816-1890), james b. 13 january 1818, joseph (1819-1877) and ann jane b. 18 july 1822 all born in killinchy. Jane passed away on 21 jan 1851in bangor age 70, where i have found her grave. Peacock lived in bally mullen ? at that time. can anyone help me trace his roots or his where abouts later in his life?

Thanks

Dear Casa

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

One of the issues with such an early search, as I'm sure you know, is that often times the parish records are not available for that pre-Famine era. 

There are some Logan listings on the Griffith's Valuation in Killinchy, though it would be difficult to say if they are the same family as listed below in 1863. Logan seems to be a name very much connected with that parish::

The only mention I can find of them (including parish records which don't seem to be online anywhere except some on familysearch.org, which I'm sure you have) is here:
