      By Rev John Hayes

      The Roman Catholic chapel in the parish of Magherafelt was located on the road to Castledawson in the townland of Tamnadace [Tamnadeese]. [It appears to actually be in Aghagaskin.] There was not a resident priest in the parish until about 1822 when John Quinn arrived. This is probably the "Rev John Hayes" that Mary Ann McCarron McCashion remembers being the pastor who married her and Neil McCashion.

      The Church of St. John Milltown Magherafelt, Co. Derry
      The site at Milltown is clearly being used for a chapel from 1792 onwards. The Ordnance Survey Memoir of 1834 records "A Roman Catholic Chapel is situated in the townland of Tamnadace on the road from Magherafelt to Castledawson and about a mile from the former town. It was erected in the year 1792 and was enlarged and newly roofed in 1831.

      The Methodist Church
      It appears that when the Rev Mr Matthew Langtree was appointed to Coleraine in 1795, the circuit included a considerable portion of the Counties of Derry and Antrim, encircling the Antrim shores from Portrush to Glenarm, and stretching from thence to Ballymena, Portglenone, Bellaghy, Magherafelt and Limavady. In the same years the Rev Adam Averell visited Magherafelt, but he found little enjoyment, the truth having long been preached with but little apparent affect.
      In 1823, Magherafelt and several other centres in South Derry were joined to Ballymena and Maghera Mission, which embraced a considerable portion of the Counties of Antrim and Derry.

      p 53
      The site occupied by the first Roman Catholic Place of Worship in or around Magherafelt is not now locally known. It would seem that some time prior to 1831 there was a Chapel in existence situated on the road leading to Castledawson, about the position at present occupied by the lower gate on the property of the late Mr R M'Guckin, solicitor. When it was erected, there is no definite information, but it is said that it at least dated from the year 1700. Prior to that period, in order to carry out the principles of their religion, the Roman Catholics met at various places, and their religious rites were generally performed at what is commonly known as "Mass or Altar Stones." According to the information of Mr Thomas Fagan, who visited the district in 1836, on behalf of the Government, a stone resembling a cross was found in the holding of John Redfern, Mullaghboy, about the year 1805, at a large hawthorn bush where, it was said, Roman Catholic Worship had been performed.
      ...
      According to a Parlimentary return made in 1766, there were in the Parish 635 families, of which 203 were Roman Catholics. There was then no Roman Catholic Priest resident in the Parish, the Priests from Ballinderry and The Loop alternately doing duty. So far as can be ascertained, the Rev John Quinn was the first resident Priest, and his assistant lodged in the house at present occupied by Mr William Davison, Killyneece. Father Quinn came to the parish about the year 1822, and died in 1862, having ministered for at least forty years.
      He lodged in Protestant houses in Magherafelt, the principal Catholics not being in a position to offer him suitable apartments.
