Described in the Urban Survey of Donegal as 'This town is situated on the Rver Foyle just a short distance from the border with county Derry. The town was not on any of the original lists for the plantation of Ulster and appears in 1618 as a fully fledged new town at a time when other centres such as Raphoe and Rathmullan were clamouring for incorporation. The town was situated in the old parish of Taughboyne, I.e. Teach Baithen ("the church of Baithen"), named after the abbot who succeeded Colmcille at Iona (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 406). Despite attempts to build a new church within the town, Taughboyne, some 3km north of St. Johnstown, was to remain as the parish church of the new settlement. The land of St Johnstown, then called "Dromtoolan alias Cashelduffe", was granted to Ludovic Hamilton, duke of Lennox, on condition that he should introduce thirteen English or Scottish men, "principally artificers", wihin the space of four years and build houses for them (Ir. Rec. Comm. 1830, 403). The patent, which survives in the Public Record Office of Ireland, further required that the corporation should consist of thirteen members and it set out stipulations for the plan of the town (PROI, R.C. 3/4, ff. 88-93). The purpose of the proposed town is interestingly stated as being as much for the defence of loyal subjects living in the area as for the restraint of rebels. It seems, however, that the incorporation was not proceeded with before the outbreak of rebellion in 1641. The Civil Survey, compiled some years later, describes St Johnstown simply as a little village. The adult population in the census of c. 1659 is given as 19 English and Scots, and 18 Irish making a total of 37, the second smallest borough population (after Killybegs) in Ulster. In 1671, however, the town returned members to parliament and it continued to do so until 1800 when the earls of Wicklow, who had bought the town from the hamiltons, received £15,000 in compensation for the loss of the borough' (Bradley and Dunne 1989, 60-1). The physical layout of the town is described in the Urban Survey as 'The street plan is linear consisting of one main street running E-W, intersected by a narrower street running N-S, past the unfinished parish church. The manner in which the present Derry road cuts through the town indicates that it is not original. The market place was evidently in the main street which was made broad in order to accommodate it. The original patent stipulates that the market should be held on Mondays' (Bradley & Dunne 1989, 61-2). - DG063-003001: Church, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDG063-003001-. In 1622, the parish church of Taughboyne was 'decayed and the reedifying of the same has been stayed by Sir John Stewart Kent, who obtained a warrant at the Council Table to build a new church, himself laying out £100 towards the building ... at St. Johnstown which church should be finished this midsummer 1622, but is not above the side walls yet' (Royal Commission, 213). As 'the parish church was repaired in 1627, by the rector, Thomas Bruce, it would appear that the church at St. Johnstown remained roofless. A tradition to this effect was recorded by Fagan in 1846 (Bk. 11, 7-8). The walls of the ivy-covered, equal-armed, cruciform church 18.9m × 6.4m internally are built of rubble, survive 1-2m in height and are .77m thick. Only a small section of the S wall of the E arm is visible. Two opposing gaps in the N and S walls of the transepts are probably the remains of windows. The splayed ingoing for a window survives in the E wall of the S transept; an ash tree is growing in the middle of the window sill. The interior is very overgrown and successive burials have resulted in varying ground levels both within the church and in the graveyard (DG063-003002-) around it.
