Descendants of Cornelius O'Dochartaigh
Generation No. 1
1. CORNELIUS1 O'DOCHARTAIGH was born 1440 in inishowen, Tyroconnell, Ireland, and
died in Sharagore, Inishowen, Tyroconnell, Ireland. He married SARCE MCDAVITT. She was born 1445 in inishowen, Tyroconnell,
Co. Donegal, Ireland, and died in inishowen, Tyroconnell, Co. Donegal, Ireland.
Notes for CORNELIUS O'DOCHARTAIGH:
The O'Dohertys, a
branch of the Cinel Conaill and of the same stock as the O'Donnells, were
originally chiefs of Cinel Enna and Ard Miodhair, now angl. Ardmire, in the
barony of Raphoe, but about the beginning of the 15th century, they became
lords of Inishowen and one of the most powerful families of Tirconnell, a
position which they retained down to the reign of James I, when, after the
rebellion of Sir Cahir O'Dogherty, their possessions were confiscated and
granted to Sir Arthur Chichester. The O'Doghertys are now one of the most
numerous of Irish families.
The O'Dohertys of
Inishowen descend from Conall Gulban, a Milesian prince of the royal house of
Heremon who won possession of the area now known as Donegal, in the beginning
of the fifth century. Conall was the brother of Eoghan (Owen) who conquered Tir
Eoghan (Tyrone) and son of the Irish monarch, Niall of the Nine Hostages, the
man responsible for kidnapping St. Patrick to Ireland in A.D. 405. From Conall
the territory obtained the name of Tir Coneill, or the Land of Connell, and his
posterity became known as the Cinel Connaill, or the race of Connell.
Specifically the
O'Dohertys get their name from Dochartach, son and heir of Maongal and grandson
of Fianan, Lord of Inoshowen, who was the third son of Ceannfaola, prince of
Tir Connell, and 12th in lineal descent from the aoresaid Conall Gulban. In
itself the name Dochartach means "hurtful" or
"disobliging." It is a name of great antiquity.
Few early censuses in
Ireland exist, but the Hearth Money Rolls for County Donegal in 1665 and for
County Derry in 1663 listed dozens of O'Dougherty (the O means grandson of)
householders, some in every parish.
On the Inishowen
Peninsula on the north coast of County Donegal, many shop signs bear the name
O'Doherty; it is the most common in the county, and indeed the 15th most common
surname in all of Ireland. A Doherty Family Heritage Center has been
established on the western foot of the peninsula, Inch Island, just north of
Derry, where people from all over the world have collected genealogical data to
visit and study their roots, and a Doherty Heritage Trail on the Peninsula
leading to several Doherty castles or ruins dating from the 1300-1600s.
Derry (to the Irish
republicans), or Londonderry (to the British), is the city on the River Foyle
that separates Northern Ireland (part of Britain's United Kingdom), from the
Republic of Ireland, and was the scene of bloody confrontations during the
rebellions which led to Ireland's freedom, and even since then. At armed,
sandbagged guard posts on both sides of the border, vehicles were halted and
scrutinized by soldiers for the north or south, when I was there in 1988 and
1991.
The Inishowen
Peninsula of County Donegal lies between Lough Foyle and Lough Swilly where
those rivers flow into the North Sea and is the home territory of the
O'Dohertys.
Though a
centuries-long history of the chiefs of the clan can be told, the last with any
power was Cahir O'Dogherty, the son of John Oge. In 1608 grievous dissension
arose between the Governor and Cahir; the Governor abused him with insults and
contempt. Cahir vowed revenge, and attacked the town and killed the Governor.
Following that, Cahir had several more encounters with the British and held his
ground for several months in Donegal. The new British Lord Deputy put a reward
of 500 marks o his head and the reward was son collected when Cahir was shot
dead by an English marksman who crept up on him while he was encamped near
Kilmacrennan. He was subsequently beheaded and the gory trophy sent to Dublin.
Cahir's vast estates
were confiscated -- no doubt the reason the entire exercise was engineered.
Those who had owned their property had to start paying rent to English
landlors. In parts of the Donegal and other counties, landlords forced the
people to leave their homes on very short notice, on little excuse. The
abandoned, roofless houses are called "eviction houses" by the
people. And that is how and why many Irish who could, came to America, as well
as to Australia, England, or Scotland, more than a hundred years before the
terrible Potato Famine of mid 1800s.
THE LAGGAN, of Co.
Donegal, should not be confused with the Lagan Valley Constituency created just
south of Belfast, Northern Ireland, U.K., in 1983, which combined parts of the
old South Antrim and North Down with bits and pieces from elsewhere

Notes for MICHAEL MOR DAUGHERTY:
Our immigrant ancestor
Michael (Mor)* Daugherty was born in The Laggan; his wife Catherine Rodgers was
born in Manorcunningham in The Laggan; their three sons William (the
blacksmith), Michael (Oge)*, and Charles were born in Muff, Inishowen; Lifford;
and Raphoe.
Michael (Mor)'s
grandfather Liam (William) (Mor) was born on the Isle of Barth, Burt (a little
south of Burnfoot-Bridgend on the British road map below, just below where the
road turns off to the Inishowen).He died at Raphoe in The Laggan. His son Liam
(Oge) was born in The Laggan.
Liam (Oge)'s son
Michael (Mor) and his family immigrated to America in 1727, probably with the
large Caldwell settlement to New Castle, DE. Joseph Caldwell was the
Daughertys' Presbyterian landlord who immigrated because of the English crown's
persecution of non-Anglicans, both Protestant and Catholic. With his brothers
and brothers-in-law (including a Dougherty), and others they sailed from the
port of Londonderry. After landing in Delaware, the group moved through
Pennsylvania and south to Virginia, where many of them formed a Caldwell
settlement near Charlotte. Another of the families was Patton, which we see in
frequent contact with the Daughertys, Magills, and Pattersons in Augusta Co.,
VA.
By 1735 Michael (Mor)
Dochartaigh/Doherty/Daugherty was a storekeeper in Newlondon Derry, Chester
Co., PA. Abt 25 Jan 1737/8 he and his wife and sons moved with the colony
southwest to Augusta Co., VA, settling on Borden's Great Grant in what later
became Rockbridge Co. (There may have been daughters we don't know about).

William Daugherty
(called "Sam" by the Cherokee) was one of the first Indian agents for
the colony of Virginia; he married Elizabeth Bunch, a Cherokee. Michael (Oge)
Daugherty married Mary Clark. Charles Daugherty married Rebecca Cunningham
whose family came from Ireland with the same colony. Charles, our ancestor, was
killed 17 Jul 1763 by Cornstalk's Shawnee raiding party on Kerr Creek; his
family was spared by being at church. William's wife Elizabeth was a heroine,
riding up the valley to warn other settlers. After those attacks, William and
Elizabeth moved further south.
William and Michael
(Oge) died in Montgomery Co., VA. Many of the children and grandchildren of
Michael (Mor) Daugherty were pioneer settlers in Lincoln Co., KY, starting in
1775.

"On looking at a
map of the County Donegal, it will be seen
that the north-eastern
part of the county, which is the most
northerly part of
Ireland, is a peninsula washed on the eastern
side by the waters of
Lough Foyle and on the western by Lough
Swilly. This is
Inishowen, a mountainous and, to a large
extent, a barren
country. Immediately to the south of it is a
fertile and
comparatively flat country, lying between the river
Foyle and the upper
reaches of Lough Swilly, and extending in
one direction from the
City of Derry to Stranorlar, and in
another from Lifford
to Letterkenny.
"This is the
district which in by-gone times was known
under the name of THE

of the ancient territory of Tyrconnell .

8. CHARLES8 DAUGHERTY (MICHAEL MOR7, LIAM6 O'DAUGHERTY, LIAM5, SEAN4 O'DOCHARTAIGH, CONN3, AODH2, CORNELIUS1) was born 1716 in Lagan Valley, Donegal , Ireland, and
died July 17, 1763 in Kerr Creek, Augusta Co Va. He married REBECCA CUNNINGHAM 1729,
daughter of JAMES CUNNINGHAM and MARGARET UNKNOWN. She was born
1715.
Notes for CHARLES DAUGHERTY:
born ca 1716, Lagan
Valley, Donegal, married Rebecca Cunningham(?), and was killed by Indians 17
Jul 1763, on Kerr Creek, Augusta Co., in a raid by Cornstalk's braves, on a
Sunday morning when most of the inhabitants were away at church, in what became
Rockbridge Co. Charles moved to Augusta Co. with his father from Chester Co.,
PA, by 1738, and by 1745 settled on Kerr Creek.
In 1763, William's
wife Elizabeth was a heroine in the terrible raid by Cornstalk; the Shawnees
were seen from Fort Young on Jackson River and an express was sent to William
Dougherty's, but he was away from home, so Elizabeth mounted and raced up the
Cowpasture valley warning settlers, who fled to the mountains before the
Indians arrived. The settlers of Kerr Creek were less fortunate and Charles Dougherty,
among others, was killed.
From - Annals of
Augusta County, Virginia from 1726 to 1871 by Jos. A Waddell
"The smaller band
of Indians made their descent upon Kerr's creek on the 17th of July (1763).
Their number was twenty-seven, Robert Irvin having counted them from a bluff
near the road at the head of the creek. Some weeks before, two boys, named
Telford, reported that when returning from school they had seen a naked man
near the path. This report was not much thought of till the massacre, when it
was supposed that the man seen by the boys was an Indian spy sent out to
reconnoiter....
From this point they
had a full view of the peaceful valley of Kerr's creek. Hastening down the
mountain, they began the work of indiscriminate slaughter. Coming first to the
house of Charles Daugherty, he and his whole family were murdered. They next
came to the house of Jacob Cunningham, who was gone from home, but his wife was
killed, and his daughter, about ten years of age, scalped and left for dead.
She revived, was carried off as prisoner in the second invasion, was redeemed,
and lived for forty years afterwards, but finally died from the effects of the
scalping. The Indians then proceeded to the house of Thomas Gilmore, and
he was and his wife were killed, the
other members of the family escaping at that time. The house of Robert Hamilton
came next. This family consisted of ten persons, and one-half of them were
slain. By this time the alarm had spread through the neighborhood, and the
inhabitants were flying in every direction. For some reason the main body of
the Indians went no farther..... The people on Kerr's creek had repaired the
losses...basically Indians attacked again, only there were more of them. the wife of Thomas Gilmore, standing with her
three children over the body of her husband, fought with desperation the Indian
who scalped him. She and her son, John, and two daughters, were made
prisoners....
An entire family of
Daughertys, five Hamiltons, and three Gilmores were slain....Mrs. Gilmore
struck up, with plaintive voice, the 127th Psalm of Rouse's version....The
Indians then separated into several parties, dividing the prisoners among
themselves. Mrs. Gilmore and her son, John, fell to one party and her two
daughters to another. The last she ever heard of the latter was their cries as
they were torn from her.....the mother and son were also parted, she being sold
to French traders and the boy retained by the Shawnees. Finally he was redeemed
and brought back by Jacob Warwick to Jackson's river where he remained till his
mother's return."
Long before any white
man had explored the entire Kentucky area, it was claimed by Virginia as part
of her Augusta County. Daniel Boone brought his family to Kentucky in 1773;
established the first permanent settlement in Kentucky at Harrodsburg in 1774,
and a year later founded Boonesboro. That same year, 1775, John Daugherty, the
first of the family in Kentucky, came to the area a few miles from Boonesboro
which would become Lincoln County.

Our part of the
Daugherty migration to Kentucky was the second wave, descendants of Charles
Daugherty and wife Rebecca in the 1780s, ten years after his brother Michael Daugherty
II's sons. After Charles was killed by Indians in Augusta Co., VA in 1763, his
widow and children remained there about ten years before some moved west into
Kentucky.
Charles and Rebecca's
son Cornelius, born ca 1729 probably in Pennsylvania, was a weaver who
immigrated with his father and grandfather to Augusta Co. from Chester Co., PA
in 1738. Cornelius served in Capt. George Robinson's company of militia in
1742. From 1742-49 Cornelius and his wife (1) Mary Hill lived on Cedar Creek on
the North fork of the Roanoke in Augusta Co. They had, according to one book,
six sons and six daughters, but not all their names are known; only George H.,
Noble, Ann, William, Isabel, Christopher, Abraham, Robert, Alexander, and
Thomas Daugherty. Mary Hill died and Cornelius married about 1770 (2) Agnes
_____. They had William, James Hill, John, and Cornelius R., Jr.
Charles Daugherty had,
besides Cornelius, William, Thomas, and David, a son Daniel who in 1779
operated an iron works on Irish Creek of South River, Augusta Co., VA, not far
from brother David's Mill Creek farm. Other brothers were Anthony, who died in
1792, Rockbridge Co., VA, and James who acted as Anthony's executor. The first
tax list of the new Rockbridge Co. (taken out of Augusta) in 1778 listed James,
William, and George Daugherty. In 1782 James, Anthony, William and Thomas were
on the list. James started an iron works in Wythe Co., VA 1783-90, and is said
to have died there in 1799.
Between 1755 and 1756,
CHARLES served in the Augusta Co. militia during the French and Indian war. In
Jul 1763, CHARLES was killed by Indians in a raid by Cornstalk's braves on Kerr
Creek, on a Sunday morning when most of the
Notes for REBECCA CUNNINGHAM:
The family Cunningham
take their name from the district of Cunningham in Northern Ayrshire. The land
of Kilmaurs of that area was granted by Hugo De Moreville, Constable of
Scotland to a vassel named Warnebald in the 12 th century and it is from his descendants
that the Cunningham family originate.
Cunningham is a Scottish place name that described the man
from the location near Kilarmock and first recorded in 1153 as Cunegan, a word
with Breton origins. The spelling with
-ham added it earliest know mention in 1180.
When of Irish origin, Cunningham is the Anglicized form of O'Cuinneagain
meaning descendant of Cuinneagan, a form
of Conn meaning leader, chief.

9. WILLIAM8 DAUGHERTY (MICHAEL MOR7, LIAM6 O'DAUGHERTY, LIAM5, SEAN4 O'DOCHARTAIGH, CONN3, AODH2, CORNELIUS1) was born 1712 in Muff, Inishowen, Donegal, Ireland,
and died July 06, 1773 in Montgomery Co, VA.
He married ELIZABETH BUNCH 1732 in PA.
She was born 1720.
Notes for WILLIAM DAUGHERTY:
. William DAUGHERTY
the blacksmith was born circa 1712? at Muff, Inishowen, Donegal, Ireland. He
married Elizabeth BUNCH circa 1732? at PA? Three of his children were baptized
by the Rev. John Craig in 1749 at Augusta Co., VA. He was officially granted the
land on Cowpasture River on 3 Nov 1750 at Botetourt Co., neither he nor Charles
Dougherty over on Kerr Creek could be
served summonses
because the Indians were so bad. A series of
forts was built the
following year, but the Indians continued
to raid, and William's
neighbor Archibald Clendenning, Jr., was
killed by them in
1761. 3
his wife Elizabeth was
a heroine in the terrible raid by
Cornstalk; the
Shawnees were seen from Fort Young on Jackson
River and an express
was sent to William Dougherty's, but he
was away from home and
Elizabeth mounted and raced up the
Cowpasture valley
warning settlers, who fled to the mountains
before the Indians
arrived. The settlers of Kerr Creek were
less fortunate and
Charles Dougherty, among others, was killed
17 Jul 1763. 4
In the third wave,
some children of Michael Mor Daugherty's son William (the blacksmith) and wife
Elizabeth Bunch emigrated in 1791 from Botetourt Co., VA to KY. Little is known
of their son Henry. Their children Joseph, William, and Agnes were baptized by
the Rev. John Craig in 1749 in Augusta Co. -- the family was Presbyterian.·
Of those, Joseph
married (1) Rachel Jordan in Russell Co., VA ca 1769, and had five children
Nicholas, John, James, Rachel, and Nathaniel, all in Fincastle Co., VA. Their
mother probably died in childbirth, for Nathaniel was born 15 Jan 1781, and
Joseph married (2) Mrs. Elizabeth Drake Sayers, a widow, on 15 Nov 1781 in
Montgomery (now Wythe) Co., VA. Joseph and Elizabeth had seven more children:
Elizabeth, Nancy, Joseph Jr., Samuel, Sarah "Sally," Robinson, and
Mary "Polly" born in Montgomery, Russell, and Lee Cos., VA,
1783-1800. Joseph died in Lee Co. VA in 1825. All his children remained in Lee
Co., VA, though some grandchildren immigrated to Kentucky well past the earlier
ones.
· Joseph's brother James went to Kentucky
in 1786 and settled near its southern boundary in Greene Co.
· Their brother William Daugherty II (son
of William the blacksmith) married (1) Elizabeth Daugherty and they had Joseph,
Agnes, George, James, Elizabeth, and William III, all in VA except the latter
born in Guilford Co., NC. William II married (2) Mary Bridger in Augusta Co.,
VA on 30 Jan 1786. Four days before the wedding, on 26 Jan in Botetourt Co.,
VA, he divided his land and slaves, perhaps in settlement four days before his
2nd marriage, among his sons William, Joseph, and George, and gave his
daughters Elizabeth and Agnes 40 pounds each. James was already in Kentucky.
· On 7 Nov 1791 William II sold the land
his father settled in 1743, now in Bath Co., VA, to neighbor Robert Stilington,
to go to Kentucky. The deed was signed by the entire family, including 2nd wife
Mary. Son James signed 6 Nov 1790 in Kentucky (Green Co.), and that's probably
where William and Mary moved, to join him, and died.
Notes for ELIZABETH BUNCH:
Elizabeth was a heroine in the terrible raid
by
Cornstalk; the
Shawnees were seen from Fort Young on Jackson
River and an express
was sent to William Dougherty's, but he
was away from home and
Elizabeth mounted and raced up the
Cowpasture valley
warning settlers, who fled to the mountains
before the Indians
arrived. The settlers of Kerr Creek were
less fortunate and
Charles Dougherty, among others, was killed
17 Jul 1763. 4

Notes for JOHN DAUGHERTY:
John Daugherty
(emigrated 1775), son of Michael II and Mary Clark, came to Lincoln Co. from
Fincastle Co., VA. John had been born ca 1743 in the Forks of the James River
in the portion of Augusta Co. which became Rockbridge Co. It is probable that
his first trip to Kentucky was as a Capt. in the Virginia militia in Fincastle
Co. beginning 1774, when he had the chore of delivering horses prior to the
Battle of Point Pleasant on the Ohio River during the Revolutionary war. On 3
May 1774, Fincastle Co., he went into court to prove that part of his left ear
had been bitten off in an affray (since a cropped ear might mark a thief). The
grand jury, among its members Benjamin Logan who later took the colony that
settled present-day Lincoln Co., KY, indicted Isaac Spratt for this act, but
also presented John Dougherty for unlawfully quarreling. The Spratts were
neighbors who had sold land to John's brother George Daugherty.
John married Isabelle
Allen Patton; owned huge tracts of land in both Lincoln and Jefferson Cos., but
by 1789 was settled in Jefferson (now Trimble) Co., KY. In 1812 he sold his
Kentucky holdings and removed to Orange Co., IN with his sons and many other kin.
There he died on 14 Feb 1828. John and Isabelle had seven sons and four
daughters, one of whom is believed to be Mary Daugherty the wife of Col. James
W. Patton, "founder of Louisville."

settled at Locust Thicket near Danville, KY,
having raised a crop
of corn there in 1775. In March they made
a journey to the Falls
of the Ohio "to see the country and make
improvements and
Entrys." During Indian attacks of 1776,
others left to live in
a fort, but John Daugherty remained on
the disputed land. His
near neighbor Archibald McNeil was
killed by Indians in
1777; in 1778 Dougherty was Capt. of a
militia company. 5
it is unlikely that he
brought his family to Locust Thicket
until now, but
meanwhile he had been acquiring large tracts of
land south of
Danville. He owned thousands of acres and had
Dougherty Station 1.5
miles below Danville on a branch of
Clark's Run then known
as Dougherty's Creek but now as Balls
Branch, near the
Wilderness Trace. John built his house on a
slight eminence about
200 yards from the confluence of
Dougherty's Creek and
Clark's Run and it was visible from the
Trace. His brother
Robert lived in the vicinity for several
years. 3

of 42 men, including his brothers Robert
and George, on Clark's
expedition following the Blue Licks
disaster. The Indians
never gave Kentucky any great trouble
after this expedition,
and the number of settlers increased
rapidly.
most of the land
around Dougherty's Station was being farmed,
and a grist mill was
built nearby on Dougherty's Creek. John
and his brothers
Joseph and James were the only three
Daughertys on the 1783
Lincoln Co. tax list. 6 7

land in the Hanging Fork of Dix River

"Multnomah", Liberty, Clay Co., MO
Multnomah, a Clay
County mansion built in 1856 about seven
miles northwest of
Liberty, and its builder, Maj. John
Dougherty, are
pictured on a tinted postcard reproduction of a
painting by George
Barnett.
A stream of carriages with guests
are arriving at the
front door for an "evening summer party."
The major was well
known for his hospitality.
Major Dougherty's
colorful career as an explorer, fur
trapper, first Indian
agent in Kansas, government interpreter,
major in the U.S.
Army, sutler and freighter, Missouri
Congressman and
plantation owner, began in 1808 when he was 17.
He spoke French and
seven Indian dialects.
His early explorations
led west through Missouri in Clay
County along Shoal
Creek. The place was alive with wild game,
bright with wild
flowers and fruit, and with a heavy growth of
walnut, oak and
sycamore. He vowed he would return eventually
to establish his
permanent home, and did so 20 years later. He
named his Clay County
plantation after the beautiful falls in
Oregon, which he had
visited on his first journey west.
The Indian word
Multnomah means "many waters." The home
faced the wooded banks
of Shoal creek, tumbling along over
limestone and flint
that the Missouri tribe of Indians had
cherished during their
occupancy of the same area.
John Dougherty died at
Multnomah Dec. 28, 1860, his wife,
Mary Hertzog
Dougherty, originally from St. Louis, died 13
years later. Sons of
the major took over the large farm and
occupied the house.
Some of their descendents reside in the
county today.
The mansion was
destroyed by fire in April 1963. It was
vacant at the time and
had recently been condemned as unsafe.

brother Joseph
accompanied them. BETWEEN 1819 AND 1820 1
was reported by Thomas
James, on a trip up the Missouri River
with a group of Lisa's
trappers, as, "Daugherty, as if inspired
by the scene [high,
desolate, snow-covered mountains dark with
deer and buffalo] with
the spirit of poetry and song, broke
forth in one of Burns'
noblest lyrics." 1
