George Daugherty
M, #3151, b. about 1751
Again, we seem to have a George Daugherty in Pennsylvania, often attached to our Michael Daugherty II, who lived in Virginia, having a George born in Pennsylvania in 1750. Is this George Daughtery the Pennsylvania war hero?
Once again, I'll let others try to figure this out...

Elizabeth Bunch
F, #3152, b. 1722, d. 6 July 1773
William Daugherty (called "Sam" by the Cherokee) was one of the first Indian agents for the colony of Virginia; he married Elizabeth Bunch, a Cherokee.
...
William's wife Elizabeth was a heroine, riding up the valley to warn other settlers. After those attacks, William and Elizabeth moved further south.

Mary Daugherty
F, #3161, b. about 1746, d. 1786
I see no proof that Mary Daugherty who married James Patton was in fact the son of Michael Daugherty. A suggestion in Genealogies of Kentucky Families.
Parents
Birth | about 1746 | In Rockbridge County, Virginia, British America. |
Marriage | 1768 | In Augusta Co., Virginia, British America. Married Captain James Patton, one of the founders of Louisville.

Rebecca Cunningham
F, #3162, b. 1745, d. before 1810
Parents
Birth | 17451 | |
Marriage | about 1763 | In Probably Virginia, British America. There is a mixup between James Daugherty b1737 son of Michael and Mary Clark and James Daugherty b1747 son of Charles and Rebecca Cunningham... This is copied for both James Daugherty...
James Daugherty b1747 son of Charles D. and Rebecca Cunningham... I have... He married (1) UNK in 1776. He married (2) REBECCA CUNNINGHAM 1764, daughter of WILLIAM MCGILL and JEAN ?. She was born 1750. [JN I'm assuming Rebecca McGill first married a Cunningham.]
James D b1737 son of Michael D and Mary Clark married a Rebecca Cunningham and their children are known and one has a Cunningham middle name... Patterson-Magill-Daugherty Pedigree and letter.pdf This story does not give the parents of James Daugherty but one of the author's grandmotehr was a Cunningham which would fit and a child had a middle name Cunningham. BUT this family calls itself Magill!
Geneanet tree has the 1747 James son of Charles marrying a Rebecca with a different set of children than the 1737 family. https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/7102279606:624762
|
Death | before 1810 | Said to not appear in the 1810 census. findagrave has a year and has a cemetery... but no evidence that she is in there.1 |
Misc | | Connection to our Cunningham relatives? A quick look says it is not obvious that this Rebecca Cunningham b1745 is related to "our" Rebecca Cunningham b1715 even though both married Daughertys. The familysearch tree for this Rebecca has completely different ancestors. |
Misc | | Father: William Cunningham d1780, mother Phoebe.3,1 |

I cannot find a 1775 will for a James Cunningham
Margaret ("Peggy") Daugherty
F, #3163, b. 1775
Although the 1882 Letter from Descendant, Dr. James Daugherty
Magill says Margaret's father was James Daugherty and her mother Rebecca Cunningham, her marriage record suggests her father is William. Of course he could be a William James or a James William... But Sarah's marriage record says her father was James and mother Rebecca. It does not say William is her father, but that he and Magill enter into an agreement...
James would be confirmed by the fact that a grandchild's middle name was Cunningham.
