seventeenth century plantation of county Londonderry and makes
available for the first time two important genealogical sources, the
1630 Muster Roll and the Summonister Court Rolls c.1615-1670 for
county Londonderry. Mr. Forrest has utilised the Summonister Court
Rolls, the 1622 survey by Phillips and Hadsor, the 1630 muster roll and
the 1641 depositions to write a short history of the Plantation of
Londonderry c.1600-1670. He traces the development of the Londoners
twelve plantations, as well as the growth of urbanization within the
county focussing primarily on Londonderry, Coleraine and Limavady.

this book are the names of many Lowland Scots who migrated to
Londonderry during the seventeenth century. These early settlers can be
considered to be the founding fathers of the Scots-Irish in the region.
