Thank you, when researching the roles of officers and enlisted men at the time it proved a tad difficult to come across any records of the regular or irregular units in maghera at the time of the troubled year. i was born myself in one of the oldest houses in maghera, Victoria house in hall street and was always told that it bordered the yeomanry barracks at the time.
as a child i can remember playing around the wall that adjoined the old lookout tower but was never aloud to go into it, as it was to dangerous and was in a state of disrepair. i am starting my research from the sixth century to the start of the nineteenth century and will take me a few years, lol.
