1680s Death record- what Army would be in Dublin City?
« on: Saturday 21 March 15 23:24 GMT (UK) »
I have a death record of a possible ancestor in St. John's parish, 13 Nov 1683.  It reads "Daniel McCleane, one of Capt. Moriss(on's)(?) Company

I'm wondering what army this would be and if any records/muster rolls etc survive, and what their role would be in Dublin? 

Thanks to anyone who can help.

MacLean; Kildare, Offaly, Dublin, Meath, Westmeath

It would be the Irish Army, but no clues as to what Regiment?
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)
