John Donohoo of Kentucky

elizabethdonahue50 — 2009-10-13 10:18:17Z

I don't know if there is any connection with the Donohoo's that I am researching. The earliest Donohoo I have is John Donohoo who was born in 1756 and died in 1815. His wife was Nancy Ann Unknown. They had ten children. I have the years of birth and marriages for all but one of the children. They lived in Nelson County Kentucky. I don't know where John and Nancy Ann Lived before they arrived in KY. Not sure exactly when they arrived in KY but are on the 1850 census.

If you think there might be a connection please let me know.

Thanks
Eliz.

Found these three abstract of court cases. Hope it can be of some help to someone.

No.620) Original Bill Filed 7 July 1857 John J. Humphreys vs Charles M. McGhee Exec. John Humphreys said that John McGhee wanted the Donohoo property but knew the hirs of Charles Donohoo would not sell it to him on account of bad feelings. Humphreys wife was Sallie Donohoo. Humphreys was very friendly with McGhee and agreed to get the heirs to sell the land to Thomas H. Callaway who would then deed it to McGhee, at agreed price that McGhee would pay, except that McGhee would pay Humphreys more than the agreed amount that the other heirs would get. Before McGhee paid him he got in bad financial trouble by signing a mon's Bond and told McGhee to wait and pay him later. He gave McGhee a receipt as though he had paid him. He now wants the Exec. of McGhee estate to pay him.

No.658) Filed 6 Nov. 1858 S.S. Glen and Henry Donohoo vs Robert Parks, Joseph Johnston, John M.T. Haire, John M. Lowry, Wm. M. Stakely. All of Monroe Co. Debt.

Bill , next week I will get my Augusta Donohues out, spelled every which way imaginable. I am a Donohue descendant. and have never been able to connect Hannah Donnohue to our lines but its not impossible, they all shared similar names and a Augusta co. descendant had sent me lots of info in a folder, so I need to find it, his name was Dale Donnohue?. Probably spelled a different way. I am sure it must be where I got Henry and Hannahs names from. so I will see what he has on them . thanks. Jane.

Jane,

I kept my message short because I didn't know if after three years you were still researching the Donnohues or would even receive a notice of my post.

I already have information on Hannah J. Donnohue's ancestry taking it back to Augusta Co, VA.

In your initial query you were searching for information on Henry C. and Hannah Donnohue. I am looking for information on their descendants since we share a common ancestor, William Wright of Augusta Co, VA.

I show seven children for Henry and Hannah: Thaddeus S., d age 1 yr; Henry, Jr., b 1870 (what happened to him?); Joshua Tiffin, b 1872 (what happened to him?); Robert M., b 1875, m Martha J. and had two children; Daniel Dee, b 1882, d 1962, m Martha J. Cook (did they have children? Is this your line?); Margaret E., b 1885, married twice 5 or 6 children, I have identified two); Fred (var spellings) Egger, b 1888 (what happened to him?).

That a brief synopsis of what I know and some specific questions. I trust you had a good Christmas and wish you a happy new year.

Bill

I just read your email from June 2000. C.P. Donohoo would have been Commodore Perry Donohoo who married Lydia Baker. I would be interested in the info from the reunion in the 1960's. C.P.'s brother Josepheus Baxter Stowe was my great grandfather.

Ottawa County (OK) Donohoos

Pat_in_the_North — 2007-08-18 21:03:58Z

This is in the For What It's Worth Department, but I offer it because bits like this can often be something you stumble over only accidentally.

The following Donohoos are buried in Mt. Hope Cemetery, Afton, Oklahoma:

Donohoo Infant,1899,died,1899,child of,Dr.J.& Mrs.Dellan Donohoo
Donohoo Mattie,died,March 29-1895,wife of,Dr.J.Donohoo
Donohoo Rebecca,born,Oct.12-1871,Tenn.,died,Aug.31-1906,wife of,Charles Donohoo(m) 1857
Donnahoo Ida,died,Aug.11-1921

They're no kin to me, but another Mrs. Donohoo was one of my grandmother's dear friends; her husband was a doctor, Joe D. Donohoo and he practiced in Afton around the early 1900s. I have more information on that family if anyone is interested. I don't know if or how the above listed in the cemetery were connected with the Doctor and his family.

Looking for Jackson Donohoe (plus other spellings) who was born 16 Oct 1818 in South Carolina. Was wondering if he was related to your James?

Re: Ancel Donohoo

2004-03-16 15:29:43Z

Correction posted. James Donohoo was born in SC. He served as Assistant U.S. Federal Marshall for Bradley County, TN, from the early 1800's until the civil war ended. Bradley County, TN, was formed in 1836. Please email back because my brother knows of some Donohoo relatives in SC.

Re: Ancel Donohoo

2004-03-16 15:29:13Z

James is Timothy's dad. Timothy was born in 1872 here in TN. Not sure about James. There is a Ireland connection and some relatives in SC. These are my husbands relatives. There is a web site you can look at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~zashes/#Donohoo

Re: Ancel Donohoo

2004-03-16 15:28:36Z

Do you know when Timothy was born? There is a James and Timothy Donahoo in my family, but they were from Laurens County, SC and are shown on the 1820 Census record.

elizabethdonahue50 — 2004-03-16 15:09:02Z

Yes, we have a connection. I have been working with two people who connect direct to Charles Donohoo, son of John Donohoo. Charles was born in 1799 and married Sophia Dupin on August 28th 1800. Charles had a twin,named Patsy who married Osborn Bland. Please contact me on my direct e-mail so I can attach all the data I have in my database on the Donohoo family.

Re: Ancel Donohoo

SteveLizOsborn — 2004-03-16 15:27:00Z

I am hunting down a Benjamin Franklin Donahue of Clinton County, Ohio, whose father's name was Andrew Donahue. So, in the process, I'm looking at all the Andrew Donahues of the Warren, Clinton, Highland, Brown, and Clermont Counties in Ohio in the 1850 Census.
I haven't found any sure links as to which one is 'my' Andrew (he married Elizabeth Stevens in 1856 in Clermont County), but I have run across a lot of information that may relate to the book you mentioned.
It stuck in my mind, because when I saw your mention of CP Donohoo married to Lydia Baker, I remembered a bunch of curious names I came across at www.familysearch.com just today.
Apparently John Donohoo married Ann Malcom about 1797, and I've noticed at least 3 sons... James Cook Donohoo (m. Rachel in 1827, settled in Highland County.... ch in 1850 census: Wm 22, Rebecca A. 20, Mary J. 18, Narcissus, 15, Sarah E. 9, and Catharine 5), Amariah Donohoo (m. Martha "Patsy" Ockerman Landiss in 1830, ch in 1850 census: Andrew 19, Barbara 17, Jacob 15, Sarah 14, David 12, Nathan 11, Margaret 7, Theodore 6, Amariah 5, Jane 2), and Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry Donohoo (Sometimes known as Commodore Perry Donohoo or CP) (wife Lydia... I did not come across them in the 1850 census - yet - ). Perhaps this helps.
Right now, the only Andrew Donahue in the area that seems a likely match for my Benjamin Franklin's father is Andrew, son of Amariah... If you have any information that can help me find B.F.'s father, let me know.
Thanks.
