I'm not near my notes so I haven't all information handy, but
I have a William Dougherty who immigrated to the US and I gather moved around with his father and step mother and other sibblings, but finally settled in CA(Santa Clara area) He had two brothers James and Patrick or Philip, as well that for a while I gather lived together. William would later marry Jane O'Connor and he would become known as the "Lumber King". After Jane died he married ?Fenton, Ann I think but could be wrong.
If any of this seems to fit, let me know, I do have a lot more information on William and Jane's extended families.
Wish I knew who his birth mother was, and if there were other children.etc and where in Ireland he came from for sure.
Thank you
