I'm not sure what the "scotch colony" in your message refers to, but the McLaughlins mostly came from Donegal and Derry (perhaps connected to his going to Londonderry in NHwhere other folk from home would have settled ?)
You could search on the sites for those counties for leads. Since names tend to run in families, you might get leads by looking for "Johns" that were still there in later generations when records where kept.
My grandmother's sister married a McLoughlin in Co. Leitrim and they settled in Edinborough.
