George Birkett was a bricklayer and builder from London. He was sent over to Ulster by the Drapers' Company of the City of Lon-don, to build the castle at Moneymore, the Drapers' Plantation in County London-derry. By 1620, six stone and six timber houses had been erected. He was appointed Surveyor by the parishioners of Donoghenry, near Stewartstown, County Tyrone, to repair their ruined parish church.
