Response to Police Ombudsman's Findings Into Castlerock and Greysteel Atrosities
SDLP RESPONSE TO POLICE OMBUDSMAN'S FINDINGS INTO CASTLEROCK AND GREYSTEEL ATROSITIES Back to Latest News The report does put on record my efforts as a public representative to bring to justice the UFF killer gang before they carried out the second shooting atrocity at Greysteel. Latest News ‘Obviously I would want to put on record that my contact with all three officers was a lot more frequent and detailed than their memories serve them. Also missing is any detail of what steps were taken to catch the Events killers earlier although I do accept that their ‘den’ was searched on many occasions but to suggest that it was because it was a ‘drinking den’ is far off the mark. Key Speeches ‘The police do accept that they interviewed a lorry driver who was seen near Castlerock on the day previous to the first shooting. This is the same person who named to me the driver of the van who was Photo Gallery Torrens Knight. I accept that at the time of the police interview the driver did not name Knight. However my information was passed to the police in May 1993, five months before Greysteel. ‘Although the police may not have had the evidence to arrest the killers after Castlerock they certainly had their suspicions and this was understood in any conversations I had with any of the three officers. ‘The officers do accept that they set up checkpoints on both bridges into Coleraine in the period between the two killings and I welcomed this. It is now a matter of history that plans were changed from carrying out a second atrocity in North Antrim and the killer gang switched to Greysteel after the massacre at the chip shop on the Shankhill Road. -

Smythe-Wood Series A
Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index – “A” series – mainly Co Tyrone Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Co Tyrone ‘Series A’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files, although a small cache of Canadian entries is included here, being families closely associated with Co Tyrone. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper the Plantation
Co. Londonderry – Historical Background Paper The Plantation of Ulster and the creation of the county of Londonderry On the 28th January 1610 articles of agreement were signed between the City of London and James I, king of England and Scotland, for the colonisation of an area in the province of Ulster which was to become the county of Londonderry. This agreement modified the original plan for the Plantation of Ulster which had been drawn up in 1609. The area now to be allocated to the City of London included the then county of Coleraine,1 the barony of Loughinsholin in the then county of Tyrone, the existing town at Derry2 with adjacent land in county Donegal, and a portion of land on the county Antrim side of the Bann surrounding the existing town at Coleraine. The Londoners did not receive their formal grant from the Crown until 1613 when the new county was given the name Londonderry and the historic site at Derry was also renamed Londonderry – a name that is still causing controversy today.3 The baronies within the new county were: 1. Tirkeeran, an area to the east of the Foyle river which included the Faughan valley. 2. Keenaght, an area which included the valley of the river Roe and the lowlands at its mouth along Lough Foyle, including Magilligan. 3. Coleraine, an area which included the western side of the lower Bann valley as far west as Dunboe and Ringsend and stretching southwards from the north coast through Macosquin, Aghadowey, and Garvagh to near Kilrea. 4. Loughinsholin, formerly an area in county Tyrone, situated between the Sperrin mountains in the west and the river Bann and Lough Neagh on the east, and stretching southwards from around Kilrea through Maghera, Magherafelt and Moneymore to the river Ballinderry. -
