WHO WAS WATTY GRAHAM??


Walter Graham was born at the Crew, Maghera and became an United Irishman and was in charge of a Unit in the District which was made up of Units of National guards and United Irishmen. Watty Graham set out from Maghera on 6th June 1798 with 5,000 men; 500 of these bore firearms the remainder had pikes and turf spades. Due to the advancing enemy advances the Legion from Maghera and District fled and left their leaders to make the best of it with the Crown Forces. From then on the writing was on the wall for the United Irishmen in Co.Derry. An award of £5,000 was put on the head of Watty Graham for information relating to his capture. When he became aware of this he set off to try and get to America leaving the Crewe and his father, mother, wife and two children. He made out for Magilligan intending to cross to Moville where a passage had been arranged for him. Walter Graham stopped at the Rectory of (Tamlaght) Magilligan with the intention of collecting £4,000 of a debt owed to him by a Reverend Church. 'Church' betrayed him however. Less than a year after the betrayal of Watty Graham the Rev. Church got a call to attend a lady parishioner on her death bed. He saddled his horse and set off but within minutes his riderless horse came back home. The rector had been bludgeoned to death at the entrance to his own Avenue. It seems that Watty was then taken to Coleraine and held there until a detachment of soldiers came from Maghera to take him back to Maghera. There he was court-martialled and sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered for treason and rebellion. It is strongly believed that Watty Graham was hanged on a large beech tree at the entrance to the present rectory gates on June 19th 1798.
