992 Colonel Quill was the owner of Ballycarty House when it was burned by Republican Forces during the Irish Civil War in 1922/23. It was feared that the Free State Army would use it as a garrison. It is not known if he was living in the house at the time but he was not injured. A youth in the house named Ryle was murdered by the Free State Army during the civil war. The house was burned and never reoccupied.

Quill is an old Irish name and were originally a military family who had to leave Ireland in the 1690's and fought for the French. With the defeat of the forces of James 11 of England by the forces of William 111 in Ireland in 1691, part of the surrender agreement was that the Irish forces could leave Ireland and go with their arms to France to whom they were allied. Tens of Thousands of Irishmen did this and formed their own regiments in the army of the Frnech Kings - these were termed the "wild geese". With the Revolution in France, some would have defected to the British who supported the Royalist cause in France. These regiments or really their leaders would then become established families serving the British Crown. Alternatively, some member of the Quill Family at some stage would have changed sides and become allied to the English side in Ireland and would have been rewarded for becoming loyal to the crown and hence that branch of the family became separated from the old gaelic family who would have remained Catholics.

998 Conolly Robert McCausland fought in the Second World War and was reportedly so deeply moved by what he had witnessed that he converted to Catholicism around 1941. He has inherited the estate in 1938 after his father's death but it was a clause in the Will that no Catholic could inherit or own the estate. The Trustees which local solicitor WA Ingram of Martin, King, French and Ingram was one and Sir Norman Stronge was another took the view that Conolly forfeited his claim on the estate and he had signed the will with the clause a number of years previously. At first Conolly did not object to this and indeed forfeited the estate selling its contents to his sister who took it over. Shortly after WA Ingram passed away, Ingram was the last living person to know the events around the will, Conolly decided to take the issue up in court. The whole episode caused great emotional and financial distress to the family. Conolly lost the case for himself but he also had his son Marcus as one of the co-Plaintiff. The Court ruled in favour of Marcus stating that as he was too young the clause did not apply and that the estate would pass to him on him coming of age. Conolly would see effigy of himself burnt outside the gates of Drenagh and in the town of Limavady itself. A tragic episode in the history of the family and estate. McCausland, Conolly Robert M.C.
