Hello! My husband and I are planning to attend the reunion in 2010 and are VERY excited about it! We are just hoping to get to know some people before we get there so there is at least a familiar voice! We are located in Southwest Missouri for now...

We also have MANY questions about the reunion as far as costs and such...

Cameron has been a great help. i think i am about to find out if my ancestor, john charles dougherty was the son of capt. john and isabelle patton. i have hired a genealogist and i am using some free help from local researchers. if you have any information that could help, i would appreciate it. my ancestor john charles dougherty was married to sarah charles (daughter of joel charles) in livingston co ky but, one family tree on ancestry.com says he was also married to mary hollowell. we have never found anything about john's parents or another marriage. i would love to have this before going to the reunion. thanks jeaneen dougherty

"John Dougherty II Family

            John Dougherty, II, was the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Dougherty, Sr. who were Quakers. John, II was born about 1788 in Knob Lick, Metcalf County, Kentucky. John, Sr., was born about 1743 in Forks of James River, Rockbridge County Virginia.

John, II married Mary Hollowell February 11, 1810 in Corydon, Harrison County, Indiana. Mary was the daughter of Quakers John Hollowell and Miriam (Overman) Hollowell. John Hollowell died February 6, 1855 in Orange County, Indiana. Miriam (Overman) Hollowell was born June 1, 1764 in Wayne County, North Carolina and died in April 1807 in the same place.

            Mary (Hollowell) Dougherty was born February 26, 1792 in Wayne County, North Carolina. Other researchers believe she died March 18, 1855 in Knox County, Illinois but the compiler has been unable to verify this.

            John Dougherty, II and his father were among the earliest settlers of Orange County, Indiana purchasing land there in 1812, 1813 and 1816. John Dougherty, Sr. died in Orange County, February 22, 1828.

John Dougherty, II, left Indiana shortly after the death of his father. About 1829, he purchased Robert Beresford's claim in Big Grove Township. While traveling through Kendall County in 1831, Juliette Kinzie met a man she identified as Mr. Dogherty, who probably was John Dougherty, II. She described him as a tall; ramrod straight man dressed in Quaker attire whose religious beliefs were half Quaker and half Methodist.[56]

            According to the 1830 census, the Dougherty family consisted of John, his wife, four sons, and three daughters. John Dougherty, II and his wife had eight known children. Their oldest child, George W. Dougherty, was born March 11, 1811 in Jefferson County, Kentucky and died October 5, 1895 in Chambersburg, Orange County, Indiana. He married Sarah L. Campbell November 16, 1832 in Lawrence County, Indiana and did not come to Kendall County with the rest of the family. The following seven children were in Kendall County at the time of the 1830 census.

            Catherine Dougherty was born May 4, 1813 in Orange County, Indiana. She was the first wife of Jesse Hobson born January 26, 1812 in Randolph County, North Carolina. Jesse was the son of Bailey Hobson's older brother Nathan Harvey Hobson and his wife Rebecca (Freeman) Hobson. Jesse and Catherine were married April 6, 1835 in Cook County, Illinois. Catherine died December 14, 1855 at Farmington, Davis County, Utah and is buried at Farmington. Jesse died June 18, 1883 at Oxford, Bannock County, Idaho and is buried at Richmond, Cache County, Utah.

            Ann Dougherty was born September 1, 1814 in Orange County, Indiana. She married Walter Selvey December 15, 1831 in La Salle County. Ann died March 9, 1888 and is buried in Spring Lake Memorial Cemetery, Aurora, Kane County, Illinois. At the time of her death she was a resident of South Englewood, now part of Chicago.

            Levi Dougherty was born January 20, 1816 in Orange County, Indiana. Levi married (1) Mary Ann Clark April 3, 1842. He married (2) Abigail Shaffer, February 13, 1859 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Levi's date of death is unknown but he was alive in 1879 and not found in the 1880 census. He died in Vernal, Uintah County, Utah and is buried in Vernal City Cemetery, Vernal Utah.

            John Dougherty, III was born December 15, 1818 in Orange County, Indiana, and was said to have died about 1864. His place of death is unknown to the compiler.

            Nathan Dougherty was born March 3, 1820 in Orange County, Indiana. Nathan married Lydia Ann Richards. He died July 13, 1899 in Waldport, Lincoln County, Oregon. At the time of the 1880 census he was living with his son John at Bald Hills, Humboldt County, California

            Henry Dougherty was born March 29 1822 in Orange County, Indiana. One version has it that Henry died unmarried in March 1837. Another version is that Henry married Julia Philadelphia Hobson, who was born April 7, 1825 in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana. His place of death is unknown to the compiler.

            Miriam Dougherty was born August 26, 1828 in Orange County, Indiana. She married George W. Clark March 27, 1842 and was living in Anaheim, Los Angeles County, California at the time of the 1880 census. Miriam is supposed to have died about 1888. Her place of death is unknown to the compiler but a reasonable guess would be Anaheim, California.

            November 16, 1831, John, II sold his eighty acres to Abraham Holderman and moved to Aux Sable Grove where he took up a new claim west of Waish-kee-shaw's Reservation in section 1 of Kendall Township. John's claim was about a mile northwest of his son-in-law Walter Selvey's NaAuSay Township claim. Walter's claim included both timber and prairie ground and Walter farmed the prairie ground. John, II's claim was in the thickest part of the forest. It had a fine spring, known locally as the "Big Spring." John, II proceeded to build a log house beside the spring and to clear a field in the nearby timber. What an awesome task it must have been to clear the huge native black walnut and burr oaks that existed then. According to his neighbor, Smith G. Minkler, John cleared a field between five and ten acres in size. His field was still well defined sixty years later and was known locally as "The Slashing" which was then part of a timber lot owned by Edmund Seely and Charles Cherry.

            According to Rev. Hicks, John Dougherty, II lived in Kendall Township a few years and then moved on to Oregon.[57] No evidence was found to confirm Hick's belief but it was confirmed that his son Nathan lived in Oregon at one time.

            Other researchers believe John, II died in Knox County, Illinois January 2, 1856 but nothing has been found to confirm that the John Dougherty, II who died in Knox County was John Dougherty, II of Kendall County."

I am here still looking for George Dougherty my great great grandfather from Ireland who married Mary Mcmenamin.  I found his naturalization papers from the late 1790's but nothing so far on the site.  My great-grandfather, his son, Captain William Dougherty then with the Pa 59th Company K 2nd Calvary guarded Meade, the head of the Union forces at Gettysburg while we were fighting the Battle of Gettysburg, a turning point of the Civil War.
