Doherty Family Nicknames - Link

[ABradley]

Hi,

Perhaps Berlin-Bob can advise me on the legality of forwarding the list of Doherty nicknames to any one interested.
I know the original site has since closed down,but I had printed off the relevent pages which I have now scanned onto my pc.

Trying to research my Doherty family - Nickname KANE. I'm back to 1850s  - Tiernasligo and Claggan.

There is a Ó Dochartaigh / Doherty website here:

and under Genealogy in the menu you can find some more Doherty links:

The link Christopher supplied is also mentioned there, but it seems he's moved his website (again) ....

hi p.
my james (g/grandfather) first shows in glasgow in 1879 when he married margaret gallagher.
his marriage cert lists his parents as john docherty (deceased)and agnes odonnell formerly docherty, maiden surname docherty.
james was a coalminer,and lived and raised his family in bridgeton. does this tie in with your james?

                   regards.doch.

Hi Doch,
Sorry to say your info does not tie in to mine. My g'father was Philip Docherty, born in Glasgow in 1901.His brother was James, born in Donegal in 1884.(family of 10 children).Philip's father was John Docherty married to Agnes McLaughlan.They married in 1882 in Buncrana.John's father was also John, married to Susan Doherty. Susan's father was John McLaughlan Married to Agnes Barr.I know it is like a needle in a haystack, trying to find the right branch of the Docherty tree!
Hope someone else may be able to help us both!

hi p.doc.
thanks for your reply. you'r right when you say it's like a needle in a haystack. the only refference i have to my james birthplace is the 1881,1891,1901 census where his and margaret's place of birth is listed as ireland. so i'm up against a bit of a brick wall.

   good luck in your search.regards.doch.

To DOC1 - My grandfather Joseph Doherty was your great-grandfather John's brother. It's a long time since your post, but maybe you're still working on your family tree. I noticed that Agnes McLaughlin says on her marriage certificate that her father is Hugh McLaughlin, though John McLaughlin is given on her death cert. I've been finding it difficult to pin down John and Susan Doherty and had followed your g-g-grandfather John for more info on Scottish records. I do have a photograph of John Doherty - he died in 1918 at the grand old age of 107. I do have some info if you're still looking.
