Hi Palmeira
Just thought I'd drop you a line to say I visited Castledawson on a visit to Northern Ireland.  I was given a small booklet published for the 300th Anniversary of Castledawson.  I notice from a previous comment that you have a link to the Graves family.  There is a section in this book about the Graves family at Gravesend, including a photo of Gravesend.  it's now the Moyola Park Golf club.

I have Miller connections to Castledawson.

I presume you know Drumlamph was part of the Dawson family estate.

Hello again Annette54!

Many thanks for the message.  Thank you for the Graves family info.    No, I didn't know Drumlamph was part of the Dawson family estate...

I still don't know whether the Anne Henry in your tree is related to my Henry ancestors, but with the surname Miller in both families it's a definite possibility.

All the best!

I have a photo of William Miller Major Gilliland's name on the Diamond Memorial.  It is too large for me to attach.  I will try to save it in a lesser format so that I can attach.

Captain William Graves, of Gravesend, County Londonderry, married Catherine (Paterson) Heyland, widow of Captain Hercules John Heyland.  She died in 1886 and was buried at Castledawson, Co. Londonderry.  Capt. Hercules John Heyland was the son of Rowley Heyland.

Capt.Hercules John Heyland was indeed the son of Rowley and Mary Heyland.

Hercules's older brother was Major Arthur Rowley Heyland, the hero of Waterloo, 1781-1815.

They had a half brother, Langford Heyland from their father's first marriage.

The family home, Ballintemple House, is just outside Garvagh, County Londonderry.

Thanks.  A Rev. Hercules Heyland, of Ballintemple, County Londonderry, was a magistrate in 1836.  And a Rev. Rowley Heyland, of Dublin, was one too.
