I wouldn't get too hung up about the spelling in older documents - seems likely to me those variations are down to the minister's interpretation of the name - Mc and O were easily dropped over time.
Since the parents are listed as Francis & Dorothy I think you can safely assume that these are your direct ancestors.

Tyrone, Northern Ireland Baptisms 1771-80 Jim, I believe one of the listed could be my fourth great grandfather. I’ve never seen the Taggart spelled as McO’Tagart , or the McA’Taggart. Both of these have Francis and Dorothy as parents which my William has. My William was 1769, his brother John was 1767 his brother James 1760 and sister Ann 1758. Any idea if they could be the same parents? Dorothy and Francis are where I hit a brick wall. Any help is truly appreciated. I believe I was at this church back in 2013 but there was no one at the church and I was unable to look at records. My gggreat grandfather was William, his son was Francis, who was on the Oligby plantation in the Griffiths Validation in Lower Liscloon, Co Tyrone. His son John came to NYC in 1868 and Francis joined in 1879. My grandfather, William, was born in NYC in 1873 and my father in 1906. So names fit but can’t go back further. Thanks for listening.
