I gladly acknowledge the fact that without Samuel P Mitchell's book
"The land of the Roe" and the Rev. T. H. Mullin's "Limavady and the Roe
Valley" these pages would be nearly empty.
I also thank those nice people in the Country Park Centre
for letting me photograph O'Cahan's tomb and the management of Drenagh
Estate for access to the old Drumachose Church.
If there is any man who could tell us more about the
churches in Tamlaghtfinlagan than the late Harold Gough, I would like
to meet him.
I would also like to say a special "thank you" to Ken
Steward from the Ordnance Survey NI for patiently supplying me with a
lot of background information about the Lough Foyle base line.
Thanks are also due to Mr and Mrs McConway for letting me
stagger all over their land in
order to see the Minearny tower and to a very nice farmer whose name I
forgot to ask, for access to the North base tower.
