Hi Hickey,

The family I have identified as mine lived in house no. 13.
I have no knowledge of a George in the family.

Always a problem with the Dohertys 

Do you know what the family nickname was?

Hi Hicky

My Granny was Bridget [Donal John] Doherty married George [Davis] Doherty BORN abt 1881 i have exact birth date somewhere. I think she was the eldest  of her family.That is the family in the 1911 Census. What was your parents names,have you any more info.

Hi Agnes,
My father was James the youngest of 11 children. On the Clonmany marriages I've found Daniel Doherty married Ellen Harkin on 28.01.1877. John was born on 14.08.1878 (found on igi) but he was lost at sea sometime before 1911 census. Joseph 14.10.1879 (igi) emigrated to Boston USA sometime in early 1900's. Bridget was next, then Mary, Edward, Annie, Ellen, Patrick, Michael and James born 19.09.1897. There is also Daniel but I'm not sure when he was born so I've slotted him in between Edward and Annie because there was a 4 year gap!

Although I am about a year past the date of this conversation, my great-grandfather was the Joseph Doherty you mentioned as having emigrated to Boston.
