This was obviously a common name. Anybody make any connections? They had 2 children, Hester & Jesse. >> Hi! I don't know whether this may be helpful to you or not, or if you have already discovered this Dougherty in Howard Co., MO. If that is a possible location for the ancestors of your Delilah Dougherty, you may want to search the MOHOWARD-L Archives and read the messages concerning the Dougherty. A sister of my ggg gf Robert Harrison Brashear, married a Dougherty. Two of the Dougherty family researchers who frequent the MOHOWARD list gave me information about the family, where we had known practically nothing except a husband's name. If you haven't met these researcher yet, you might find something about your family in their lineage. Best success to you in finding connections that lead to facts! Beth Peck Cooper
