Hello Linda
Please feel free to contact me directly -- (*)
I have also been working on the Doherty's and Semples at Cromkill. I was recently in touch with a member of Robert James Semple's family in Canada, so can give you some later information.
Also I have studied several of these Doherty wills at PRONI and the details on the Revaluation Lists.
My belief is that the Jane Doherty who married John Semple at Glendermott in 1867 was a relative of mine, through her mother. This information comes from an unpublished letter from a cousin of hers dated 1857, which refers to a visit to Cromkill, coupled with some fairly complex deductive reasoning to build an argument using indirect evidence. I would be very keen to run my views and arguments past you, so as to test these conclusions!
I have a copy death certificate for Samuel Mitchell Semple, died 1946 aged 73, who was most surely one of Robert James Semple's brothers.
Kind regards
