Doherty marries a McCafferty, a Kearney, & another Doherty
« on: Tuesday 08 September 09 23:59 UTC (UK) »
 Hoping someone had Doherty relatives married to Doherty, Kearney, and / or McCafferty lines. I have a John Doherty born about 1829 that married a Rose McCafferty around 1860. They had a lot of children, but their one son Michael Doherty married a Rose Doherty. Her parents were Arthur Doherty and Anne Kearney. Anne Kearney's father was Cornelius. Arthur's father was also Cornelius. I was hoping someone has a connection to these lines. Thank you, Bob C

Can't help with information on these particular families but Doherty is, as far as I know, the most comon Donegal surnam,e whic won't make things any easier for you and civil registration of births, deaths and Catholic marriages didn't start until 1864. For earlier dates you need to check any surviving church records. There's a very good booklet for Donegal ancestry available online which might be of interest-

Donegal resources are in a stickied thread at the top of the Donegal board-

Doherty and McCafferty around Ballyshannon and Bundoran, if you go through www.google.com when the Box comes up type in - growing up in Ballyshannon
this site mentions McCafferty and Doherty.  I am related to the Doherty's of Bundoran
have a look on the St. Joseph site www.magheneparish.ie
