hi-
My grandfather Patrick Doherty/Dougherty/O'Doherty had a sister named Margret(aka) who married a Patrick McCarthy. Margaret was born 1890's. I don't know too much ... but Margaret and Partick MCCarthy married in NY- and are buried in Gate of Heaven Cemetery -Valhalla NY.. i too am looking for name links to build my family tree. It this doesn't help- also check the message boards- DOUGHERTY-DAUGHERTY-DOHERTY.
You're welcome to email me at ;
fiolar00 @ aol.com (the last two 00's at the end of "fiolar" are zero's - not letters.
Good luck. I'm hoping somewhere our tree meets..... Katie
