Dear Doherty Family Genealogy Forum:

We are Doherty descendants from Oakland, California who are trying to find our ancestors in Donegal. Here is what we know of our family:

1 Our Doherty ancestor had the following children:
...2 Hannah Dougherty born: November 1837 in Donegal, Ireland died: February 20, 1907 in Oakland, California
.....married: George Shields born: June 1840 in Ireland died: March 25, 1905 in Oakland, California
...2 Cecelia Dougherty born: 1849 in Donegal, Ireland died: June 5, 1887 in Oakland, California
...2 Henry Doherty born: circa 1845 in Donegal, Ireland died: in Donegal, Ireland
...married: Anne Donahue born: circa 1850 in Donegal, Ireland married: circa 1870 in Donegal, Ireland died: in Donegal, Ireland. Henry and Anne had 12 children. Here are the ones we know about:
.........3 John Doherty born: circa 1871
.........3 Mary Doherty born: circa 1873
.........3 William Doherty born: circa 1875
.........3 Ellen Doherty born: circa 1877 in Donegal, Ireland
.........3 Hugh Henry Doherty born: 1877 in Donegal, Ireland died: October 4, 1944 in Oakland, California
.........3 Hannah Doherty born: April 22, 1887 in Donegal, Ireland died: January 26, 1967 in Oakland, California
...........married: William Henry Clayborn born: September 28, 1885 in Texas married: April 28, 1914 in St. Mary's Church, Oakland, California
...2 Ellen Dougherty born: May 1850 in Ireland died: December 1915 in Oakland, California
...2 Bridget Dougherty born: circa 1845 died: May 1923
.....married: Frank Kosmalski born: circa 1848 in Poland married: 1872 died: 1900 in San Francisco, California


We believe we may have found a record of Henry Doherty and Anne Donahue's marriage at the following site as follows:

Source: Roman Catholic Marriages for the Parish of Clonmany (1852-1900) http://www.iol.ie/~inishowen/genealogy/records/Clonmany/Marriage/d3.html

Date: 06 Jan 1867
Husb. Surname: Doherty
Husb. First Name: Henry
Husb. Townland: Gortfad, Altahalla
Wife Surname: Donaghy
Wife First Name: Ann
Wife Townland: Ballynaboe, Roosky

Does anyone know if the Henry Doherty of Gortfad and Ann Donaghy of Ballynaboe described above had 12 children? And, if so, what were their names and dates of birth?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Clayborn Doherty
California
