  • An Insight Into Scottish Field Surgeons, Physicians, and Medical Provision During the Thirty Years’ War, 1618-1648
    ‘Medic!’ An Insight into Scottish Field Surgeons, Physicians, and Medical Provision during the Thirty Years’ War, 1618-1648 Steve Murdoch THE THIRTY YEARS’ WAR (1618-48) is a subject with a venerable and expansive history. In a brief study such as this, focused on only one small aspect of the war – medical provision – there is no space to rehearse the historiography of it.1 That said, there were related conflicts that certainly had a bearing on the provision of medical care to Scottish regiments in the Thirty Years’ War, even those which started decades before 1618. The Dutch, who had been in revolt against their Spanish Habsburg overlords since 1568, had been reinforced by the formation of the Scots Brigade, first established in 1572.2 When Frederick V of the Palatinate and his wife Elizabeth Stuart struggled to retain their possessions in the Holy Roman Empire in 1620, King James deployed a Scottish regiment drawn from this brigade directly into Bohemia with the intention of aiding his daughter and her family.3 It formed the first wave of some 50,000 Scots who would participate in the Thirty Years’ War in the anti-Habsburg armies alone.4 Recent scholarship confirms the scale of the intended levies, the placement of regiments, and the command structures deployed to control them in particular armies at given times.5 We also now see investigations into the role and correspondence of common soldiers and women in a welcome move away from the simple aggrandisement of the 1 Some important works include: Parker 1997; Wolke, Larsson, and Vilstrand 2006; Wilson 2009.

  • David O'hara.Pdf
    210 SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY NEWS If the pamphlet wars illuminate the changing nature of the Covenant, the subscription returns illustrate the way that English parishioners took the oaths that different regimes foisted on them. Vallance finds evidence of equivoca- tion and reservations, but ultimately (and wisely) refuses to draw strong con- clusions from uneven records. What can be said, though, is that the inclusion of unpropertied men and women into these explicitly political tests of loyalty and association constitute “an implicit expansion of the political nation” (129). This was not lost on civil war-era radicals, who interpreted the Covenants through their own circumstances. Diggers and Levellers “saw these docu- ments as not only involving spiritual obligations, but also bestowing extensive political and economic rights upon subscribers”(156). Revolutionary England and the National Covenant is based on prodigious archival research, and the arguments derived from the subscription returns may be the most original section of the book. Be it Scots or English, the millenarian enthusiasm of the mid-seventeenth century did not endure. In his study of oaths from the latter seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Vallance finds that the nature of the covenants changed. Oaths of association to the Hanoverians were rooted in the “constitutional and commercial considerations “ (214) and consciously avoided discussion of the Covenants of the past. Gone was the nationalism, gone was the impending apocalypse. “England’s Covenant with God” he concludes “had been forgotten” (216). David A. O’Hara. English Newsbooks and Irish Rebellion 1641-1649.

Until this time most gun beed unwieldsha o ns y that, once placed in position on the battlefield, they had to be left in the same position throughout the battle; thus they often proved virtually useless except in the opening stages of battles.

  • The Gordons of Salterhill
    £7 ° 'f . THE 60RD0NS OF SALTERHILL AND THEIR IRISH DESCENDANTS. J. M. BULLOCH KEITH: PRIVATELY PRINTED: 1910. GORDONS OF SALTERHILL AND THEIR IRISH DESCENDANTS. J. M. BULLOCH KEITH: PRIVATELY PRINTED: 1910. THE GORDONS OF SALTERHILL The history of such a vast family as that of Gordon is honeycombed with many puzzles in descent. I have often thought of tabula- ting some of these, such, for example, as the ancestry of David Gordon of Lascelles' Regi- ment, who was the great grandfather of Chinese Gordon. It would be a proud day for the particular line of Gordons who could tack on the hero of Khartoum to their house. But no solution of a Gordon problem would give me greater satisfaction than the origin of the Gordons of Sheepbridge, Co. Down, because no Gordon has put himself to such trouble and expense in working out his origins as their descendant, Mr Armistead Churchill Gordon of Staunton, Virginia. Mr Armistead Churchill Gordon holds that the founder of his family was the Rev. James Gordon of Comber, Co. Down, for he makes him the ancestor of the Gordons of Sheep- bridge, County Down. If this suggestion is correct, the descendants of the minister can be numbered by the hundred, for though the direct line actually owning Sheepbridge died out in 1891, the house has been extremely prolific. Mr Gordon has constructed a pedi- gree (running into 51 pages of typewritten quarto), and last year he wrote a life of his grandfather, General William Fitzhugh Gor- don, 1787-1858, issued by the Neale Publish- — ing Company of New York (8vo.

It’s the 400th anniversary of one of the most important events in Ulster-Scots history - the Hamilton and Montgomery Settlement of 1606 - yet like much of our history, its a story that hardly anyone knows about. The Ulster-Scots Agency aims to change that. Here’s a summary of the story: Before the Plantation of Ulster, two Ayrshire Scots - James Hamilton and Hugh Montgomery - pioneered a massive migration from the Lowlands of Scotland to County Antrim and County Down. Starting in May 1606, over ten thousand mainly Presbyterian Lowland Scots made the short voyage across the North Channel, transforming barren Ulster into an industrial powerhouse. Their success inspired King James VI of Scotland and 1 of England's Virginia Plantation of 1607 and his Ulster Plantation of 1610. Their achievement was “The Dawn of the Ulster-Scots”. The lands they came to had been devastated and depopulated by the wars of the late 1500s. Records say that Antrim and Down were “wasted”. The owner of the lands, Con O’Neill, had been imprisoned in Carrickfergus Castle by the late Queen Elizabeth 1 and was probably destined for execution.

This famous poem penned by Robert Burns in 1795, and described by James Kinsley (an authority on ‘The Bard’) as occupying ‘a central place in the psalmody of radicalism’, encapsulates the values of the French Revolution which inspired the intellectual leadership of the United Irishmen. 1798 an’ a’ that 1 Introduction The purpose of this publication is three-fold. First, it seeks to examine the life of Dr William Drennan and his role in the formation of the Society of United Irishman. Secondly, it provides an account of the events of the Rebellion of 1798. Finally, it considers, in the words of W. E. H. Lecky, the doyen of nineteenth-century Irish historians, ‘the defection of the Presbyterians from the movement of which they were the main originators.’ Although the late Dr A. T. Q. Stewart is almost certainly best known for The Ulster Crisis (1967) and The Narrow Ground: Aspects of Ulster 1609-1969 (1977), being born into a strongly Presbyterian family of bakers and confectioners, he had a life-long fascination with the Presbyterian radicalism of his ancestors, the origins of the United Irishmen and the 1798 Rebellion. We get a glimpse of this in a delightful essay entitled ‘The Ghost of Betsy Gray’ which was Dr Stewart’s contribution to a volume published to mark the bicentenary of the 1798 rebellion in County Down.

    Owen Roe O'Neill Owen Roe O'Neill (Irish: Eoghan Ruadh Ó Néill), c. 1585 – 6 November 1649, was a Gaelic Irish soldier and one of the most Owen Roe O'Neill famous of the O'Neill dynasty of Ulster in Ireland. O'Neill left Ireland Eoghan Ruadh Ó Néill at a young age and spent most of his life as a mercenary in the Spanish Army serving against the Dutch in Flanders during the Eighty Years' War. Following the Irish Rebellion of 1641, O'Neill returned and took command of the Ulster Army of the Irish Confederates. He is known for his victory at the Battle of Benburb in 1646. O'Neill's later years were marked by infighting amongst the Confederates, and he led his army to seize power in the capital of Kilkenny. His troops clashed with rival forces of the Confederacy, leading to O'Neill forming a temporary alliance with Charles Coote's English Parliamentary forces in Ulster. He initially rejected a treaty of alliance between the Confederates and the Irish Royalists, but faced with the Cromwellian invasion he changed his mind. Shortly after Litograph copy of a contemporary agreeing an alliance with the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland Ormond, in painting of O'Neill. which he was promised an Earldom, he died on Tuesday, 6 November 1649.
