Edward Dooher and Elizabeth Hughes (Mullenmore, Mayo to Niagara Falls & Pennsylvania)


Biography

The Dooher residence in Mullenmore south - marked in green

The records for Edward Dooher's line start from around 1833 in Mullenmore South. Mullenmore is an area just south of Crossmolina in County Mayo, Ireland

In 1833 Edward (or Edmond as he was referred to in the records) paid some tithes (see glossary). Their daughter Anne was baptised in July 1833 per parish records, but so far we don't know what happened to her. Their son Michael was born around 1837, but no baptism record has been located yet.

In 1856, Griffith's valuation shows Elizabeth (Edward's wife) as the head of the household, so from this we can infer that Edward probably died before this time. This is the last record of Elizabeth. By 1858 her son Michael was married in Canada.

Michael started his family in Clifton, Ontario and worked as a labourer. Around 1891 his family moved to the Niagara Falls area, and some of his children moved across the border to the Niagara Falls part of New York, and later on to Pennsylvania. One son, John J. Dooher, was part of the Dooher & Seager Plumbing and Heating company and ran in a Democratic primary for City Commissioner of Niagara Falls.
