- Owing Dockharty from John Alexander, Norfolk Co., VA, April 8, 1713,
Will Book Unknown:
(Courtesy of Donna Hart)
This is John Alexander's Will. Could he be the father of Susannah,
Owen's wife? Perhaps she is Susannah Alexander. Or maybe this is
just a payment for the services Owen is asked to do for John's sister
Alice. OR is this a gift to Owen and Elizabeth, only now just
recorded?

Owen and brother, Daniel, were listed in the Craven County Militia
Row 1751/1753. Their sister Margaret stayed in Virginia.
Owen's brother, Solomon (?), obtained a land grant in 1745 in
Craven County, North Carolina, which is about 440 miles South of where
they had first settled in Virginia. Solomon sold the land to his
brother Owen in 1749.
Owen II, the son of Owen I was born in Northern Ireland (Donegal
Co.) and appears to have remained there to maturity, and eventually
married Susannah. Susannah and Owen II had five children; three
girls, Susannah 2, Elizabeth and Sarah; and two boys, Richard and Owen
III. Owen III was born about 1740 in Ireland, but birth dates or
birth locations of other children are unknown. Sometime in the decade
of the 1750's, or a bit earlier, Owen II migrated to the Colonies with
his family. In the Colonies he planted his roots in Craven Co., NC,
where he prospered acquiring a fairly large acreage of land. In 1762,
subsequent to a second marriage, he deeded land to each of his and
Susannah's five children. To his son Owen III he gave 140 acres and
each of the other children received a separate tracts. Little
information is available about Susannah who must have died prior to
about 1760.
Owen married a second time to Mary Taylor, daughter of Robert
Taylor and Catherine LNU, born about 1736 in Craven Co., NC. Owen II
and Mary had five children, Daniel, Reuben, Ephraim, Robert, and a
daughter, Holland. They all grew to adulthood and married in NC.
Owen II died in February 1785 in New Bern, Craven Co., NC. Prior
to his death, on 5 Jan 1762, Owen II executed a deed dividing his
holdings among each of his five children. Owen III received a 140
acres of land. There is no mention of his wife, Susannah, who may
have died prior to the move to America.
After Owen II's death, about 1785, two of his sons with Mary,
Daniel and Rueben, (and perhaps Robert) decided to leave NC and join
the caravan of Moses Taylor, father-in-law of Robert and Daniel, in a
move to KY. Ephraim remained in NC and daughter, Holland, may have
also remained there for a time, then followed her brothers to KY. The
actions of Robert Daugherty, subsequent to the break up of the NC
estate, are uncertain.
Robert had a son, Peter Daugherty, born in 1798. Peter was not
born in KY or NC. In fact, there is no record of Peter's birth until
the Washington Co., AL Census of 1850 which shows the birthplace of
Ireland. Robert Daugherty was a preacher probably a circuit rider
accustomed to traveling. It is possible that, at the time of the NC
break-up, Robert and wife, Sarah, traveled to Ireland and remained
there a few years before joining his brothers in KY.

" OWEN DAUGHERTY III (?) was born in Donegal County, North Ireland
between 1720/1740. He immigrated to New Norfolk, Virginia where he
obtained a land grant. He family consisted of: Solomon, Owen, Daniel
and Margaret.
("Owen III's family" had to have been his siblings, children of Owen
II.)
Owen's (II) brother, Solomon, obtained a land grant in 1745 in
Craven County, North Carolina, which is about 440 miles South of where
they had first settled in Virginia. Solomon sold the land to his
brother Owen in 1749. Owen and his brother Daniel were listed in the
Craven County Militia Row 1751/1753. Their sister Margaret stayed in
Virginia.
(That Solomon was Owen's brother is in question. There is only the
land transaction showing that Solomon sold land to Owen)
