   I live in the district of Maghera and int he townland of Stramatt. Maghera occupies the eastern part of the parish of Lurgan. It is in the barony of Castlerahan.

   There are about six houses in the townland. Four of them are slated and the other two are thatched. "Lynch" is the most common name as three of the families bear that surname. There are about thirty persons in the townland. "Maghera" got its name from the Irish word "Mach" or "Machaire" meaning a plain and "Stramatt means the "strand of the plain"
