Doel - Alcorn 1846 marriage

[AlKar]

Margaret Doel married William Alcorn Feb. 22, 1846. Claggan, Horn Head, Clondahorky. We are quite that William is my wife's great grandfather. (father of Augustus of Horn Head). Can't find the name "Doel" anywhere else.

Could be Margaret Doyle - there is a son Thomas born 24 Sep 1865 in Dunfanaghy to William Alcorn and Margaret Doyle (IGI index)

There is a John Doyle on Clondahorkey Tithe Applotment Book 1833

I have an old home video in which father-in-law John Alcorn definitely says 'Doel'  or 'Dowal' as versus 'Doyle" when asked his grandmother's maiden name. You can see it on Youtube

This is definitely my wife's family. Quite certain that William (Margaret Doel) is the father of Augustus, (Isabella Stewart) my wife's grandfather. We have info. on Augustus. We believe James is the father of George; however, we don't know their relationship to William or Gustavus. Thanks for your help.

It's not difficult to provide a link (just copy and paste URL from top of your computer screen) and it makes it much easier for other people to find the sources you've mentioned.
Here's the Stewart webpage-

And this is the page with marriage of Finlay Stewart to Elizabeth Alcorn (this is just a listing of records and there is no link to open up for further details)-
