Captain Richard Walden, Sr

Parents
Birth | about 1734 | I have seen a birth date as early as 1722. He is sometimes called the son of John, who I have as his grandfather.1,2 |

Misc | | DNA Matches -. 7/12/2024 Scott's DNA on Dessie Anderson Richard Walden b1734 45 matches with siblings I don't think we have to check them... Added the extra child Henry Henry - 4 matches. 3 only Richard, but 1 both parents not my ancestor, not going to worry about another mother. |
Misc | | Children. July 2023. I just added the children I have DNA matches with. Some places list a huge number of children. Often not including Candace. |
Misc | | Parents - ISSUES! Many trees, most trees?, all trees? have Richard Walden's father a John Walden. That would mean the Dismukes are not our ancestors. He would have to have been a very late child of John.
WikiTree has what I have, with John back a generation.
Then there is his mother. There is a marriage date of 1757 which would mean neither Richard nor Samuel are children of Mary Dismukes. He is called a half sibling to the children that have DNA show up in thrulines. There are no DNA matches to Samuel Walden Jr who might have the same mother as our Richard. Note also the gap between Richard and Samuel and the rest of the children. I've also seen a rather late marriage date to Mary Dismukes.

Samuel Walden
M, #1488, b. about 1706, d. July 1779
Birth | about 1706 | In Cumberland County, Virginia, British America. The date 14 March 1706 that is floating around is for a Samuel Walling born in Rhode Island son of Thomas and Sarah Walling!1,2,3 |
Marriage | 1757 | In Pittsylvania, Virginia, British America.1,4 |
Death | July 1779 | In Virginia, United States.3 |
Misc | | Parents. WikiTree prefers this: John Walden b1669 in Rhode Island https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Walden-774 A tree has Thomas Wallen born in Massachusetts, died in Rhode Island. This one has a DNA match! But that match was born and died in New Jersey not where her "parents" were... Who came to Virginia? His wife was also believed to have been born in Virginia.
Campbell Chronicles says Richard is the son of John, but others have Richard as the son of Samuel who was the son of John.
And findagrave has him the son of s/o Joseph and Emmaline Dulanye Walden King; died of TB.
His wife's family was in Essex County, Virginia and they were married in Pittsylvania, Virginia in 1757.
Trees on ancestry have him the son of a Thomas Walling who died in New Jersey. VERY dubious...
familysearch has him son of Samuel Wallen and Emmaline Dulayne. I see no sign of such people that early, There is an Emmaline Dulayne Walden born in 1841, so maybe it is a family name. That's the only place I find this name!
I'm wondering if there are two Samuel Walden people who are being confused. Yes, in Rhode Island. Maybe these people came from Rhode Island, but...
There are DNA matches with the Rhode Island people, but I am not convinced so I am not adding them: John Wallen/Walden from Rhode Island and New Jersey and Sarah Elwell. NO connection to Virginia... |
Misc | | DNA Matches - Mostly Samuel. 10/23/2024 DNA Judy has 3 matches on Frances and Elijah, only Samuel Walden Scott has 7 matches on 4 children. Frances, Elijah, and Sarah Samuel only William both parents and only Samuel With Mary Dismukes, Scott has matches with William only
9/16/2024 DNA on Kimsey Judy 5 matches on 3 siblings. All but one Samuel only and 1 no CA. Scott has 8 matches on 5 siblings. 5 Samuel, 3 both
Maybe our Richard Walden has another mother?
7/27/2024 Scott's DNA on Dessie 9 matches with siblings of Richard Walden. All called half. All Samuel Walden only except 2 no CA (related) Judy's DNA on Dessie, 3 matches. All Samuel Walden only. |
Misc | | Another wife. It appears that Richard Walden and probably Samuel Wanden Jr have a different mother. See DNA matches. Plus it appears Samuel Sr did not marry Mary Dismukes until after our Richard was born. See gaps in children's ages too. |

Michael ("Mor") Daugherty
M, #1493, b. 1690, d. 13 October 1761
'Mor' on Michael's name means, 'Senior' or eldest. The Lagan Valley begins just west a cross the Foyle River at the edge of Londonderry, (Derry) Ireland and south to Mt. Charles. This Caldwell group would have shipped out of the Port of Londonderry, (Irish=Derry ). Caldwell was a Scot Plantation name. They were a Presbyterian Landlord in the Laggan Valley. They were disturbed that the English Gov't. were penalizing their Religion as much as the Irish Religion. The Church of England (Anglican) was the accepted religion of and enforced by the English.
Michael Dougherty was a storekeeper of 'Newlondon Derry', Chester Co, PA. Then people from this settlement began moving westward and southward, about January 25 , 1737/38 .
Our Daugherty immigrant ancestor was Michael Mor Daugherty (Dochartaigh, Doherty, Dougherty) who came to Chester Co., PA abt 1727? from Co. Donegal, Ireland, with his wife and three sons Michael (Oge), William, and Charles (daughters, if any, not known), on or soon after the day King George II was proclaimed. Michael was living in 1737 at Newlondon Derry, Chester Co., PA, where he kept a store. In 1738, he settled in Augusta Co., VA, in what is now Rockbridge Co., on Borden's Great Grant at the headwater of Cedar and Mill and Broad Creeks of the James River.
In 1742, he was in Capt. John Buchanan's militia company, listed as Michael O'Doeherty. In 1747 he was appointed constable, and in 1761 three of the Dougherty boys were on the militia list.
After a few years, they joined the large migration of Irish, Scots, and a few Germans down the Great Wagon Road to the part of Orange Co., VA, which in 1738 became Augusta Co., VA, settling in the part of the county which later became Rockbridge Co., VA; on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Michael died in 1761, and his estate was appraised by Joseph Culton, John McKee, John Gilmore and William Edmonston on 16 Nov 1763 in Augusta Co.
About the Dougherty/Daugherty family:
The first important step in the march of the settler to the Pacific was the thrust of emigration into Kentucky dating from 1775. Among the small company of frontiersmen always in the van of this movement were the Doughertys;1 five generations in little more than seventy years spanned the continent from the Atlantic to the West Coast. The family appeared in Kentucky in the first year of permanent settlement, helped to evolve the new culture of the spreading frontier, as it had in the Valley of Virginia, and then many of its members moved on: Into Indiana, into Missouri Territory and so, ever westward, up the Missouri across the Rockies, and down the Columbia, all before the nineteenth century was well begun. Some remained in Kentucky, and are represented by descendants today; most followed the moving frontier, down the Mississippi, across the prairies to Texas, over the deserts to California. Among them were -hunters and trappers, traders, soldiers, lawyers, legislators, but most were farmers and Indian fighters. In the fifth generation from Atlantic tidewater was the nation's first notable Indian agent.

Misc | Parents | Note: Several American Doherty/Daugherty genealogists give Sir Cahir O'Dochartaight as our Irish ancestor. However, Sir Cahir was killed by the British at the in 1608 at the age of 21 without any heirs. His brother John (Sean) carried on the lineage. Additionally, after Sir Cahir was killed by the British he was beheaded and his head was on display on a pole outside Derry Castle for two centuries. The immediate family of Sir Cahir for the most part moved to Spain where their descendants live now. In fact the Spanish O'Dochartaign's are some of the closes O'Dochartaigh's in linage to Sir Cahir O'Dochartaigh |

Catherine Rogers
F, #1494, b. about 1692, d. 1763
Catherine Rodgers was born in Lagan Valley, and married a Michael Mor Dougherty-I c1712 in County Donegal. Catherine and Michael are known to have at least three son's: William Dougherty, Michael Mor Dougherty-II, and Charles Dougherty. The Dougherty family left the port of Derry in mid 1727 and sailed for America along with several other Irish families, incluing some of their inlaws; the Cauldwells whom history will address later. The immigrants landed at New Castle County, Delaware on 10 December, 1727 and immediately moved to Chestnut Level, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
The family remained at Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, for the most part, until January 25, 1737/1738 when they moved to Augusta County, and Botetourt Counties, Virginia where they had been granted land by the government (see Bordens Great Grant for particulars on land given to families willing to extend the frontiers). In Augusta County, Virginia and the surrounding areas life was very unstable because of the attacks by the Indians and one of Catherine and Michael Mor Dougherty's son's, Charles, was killed by the Indians on 17 July, 1763. Charles was killed by the Shawnee Indian Chief Cornstalk and his braves while they were on a raid against the white settlers. Charles's entire family would have been killed except they were at church when the Indians attacked, guess it helps to go to church now and again. This fact that Charles Dougherty's wife Rebecca nee Cunningham Dougherty and family survived the Cornstalk raid is proved by Rebecca nee Cunningham Dougherty and one of her son's; James Dougherty being named as co-administrators of Charles's estate on 20 September, 1763 with her neighbors Edward Rutledge and Henry Campbell on her bond.
Details of the above information can be located on the internet under the Descendants of Hiram Daugherty's Irish Immigrant Ancestors, Michael Mor Daugherty & wife Catherine Rodgers and also in the Book THE DOUGHERTY OF KENTUCKY BY WILLIAM C. STEWART, Part II, MARY PATTON: A THEORY, pages 251 & 252. After the death of Catherine's husband Michael Mor Dougherty-I in 1763 the family started to break up. Reference: Thomas L. Preston, Historical Sketches, page 119 where it states: "The family began to break up after that, some remaining for a time on the James River farms, others moving South and West into the wilderness. Michael's son Michael (II) was at the Reed Creek settlement in what is now Wythe County, Virginia, in 1763, with the Bedford County militia to help James Davies and two or three other families menaced by the Indian raids if that terrible year."
Catherine is believed to have died and is buried in Rockbridge, Augusta County, Virginia (date of death is unknown). But based on family tradition she is probably buried beside her husband Michael Mor Dougherty.

William Samuel ("The Blacksmith") Daugherty
M, #1495, b. circa 1712, d. 6 July 1773
William DAUGHERTY the blacksmith was born circa 1712? at Muff, Inishowen, Donegal, Ireland. He married Elizabeth BUNCH circa 1732? at PA? Three of his children were baptized by the Rev. John Craig in 1749 at Augusta Co., VA. He was officially granted the land on Cowpasture River on 3 Nov 1750 at Botetourt Co., VA. Neither he nor Charles Dougherty over on Kerr Creek could be served summonses because the Indians were so bad. A series of forts was built the following year, but the Indians continued to raid, and William's neighbor Archibald Clendenning, Jr., was killed by them in 1761 in 1755. His wife Elizabeth was a heroine in the terrible raid by Cornstalk; the Shawnees were seen from Fort Young on Jackson River and an express was sent to William Dougherty's, but he was away from home and Elizabeth mounted and raced up the Cowpasture valley warning settlers, who fled to the mountains before the Indians arrived. The settlers of Kerr Creek were less fortunate and his brother Charles Dougherty, among others, was killed 17 Jul 1763 in 1763 at VA. William died on 6 Jul 1773 at Montgomery Co., VA.

Michael ("Oge") Daugherty, II
M, #1496, b. circa 1714, d. 1782 or 1789
The family began to break up after that [JN. the death of Michael I], some remaining for a time on the James River farms, others moving South and West into the wilderness. Michael's son Michael (II) was at the Reed Creek settlement in what is now Wythe County, Virginia, in 1763, with the Bedford County militia to help James Davies and two or three other families menaced by the Indian raids of that terrible year.12 Some time between then and 1768, Michael acquired a considerable acreage at Boiling Springs, adjacent to Fort Chisweil and the Great Road and Graham's Forge. His old neighbor on the James, James McGavock, purchased Fort Chisweil property in 1768 and Robert Graham eventually acquired the Boiling Springs property.
The family of Michael (II) included the eldest son, Henry and his wife, Jane; William, who was involved in a debt with Arthur Campbell and Colonel Henry Pauling13 and who died in the summer of 1773;14 John and his wife Isabelle (possibly Allen or Patton); Joseph and his wife, Elizabeth Drake, widow of William Sayers; Michael (III), who was wounded at the Battle of Whitsell’s Mills March 6,1781, and died at the Reed Creek farm in 1787; Robert; George; a daughter who married Robert Dennison; and perhaps a son, James; and a daughter who married an Allen. Mary Dougherty, wife of Capt. James Patton, one of the founders of Louisville, appears to have been a daughter or a niece of Michael (II). Of the latter's sons, John, Henry, Robert, George and Joseph all in time migrated to Kentucky.
--The Doughertys of Kentucky, The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society, Vol. 53, April, 1955
Michael II married Mary Clark, and their children were: William, who died in 1773; John, who married Isabelle Patton; Henry, who married Jane(?), then Katherine French, and later moved in Henry County, Ky.; Robert, w ho lived in Danville for a time; Joseph, who married Elizabeth Drake; Michael III, who died at Reed Creek Farm in 1787; George; and a daughter (name unknown), who married Robert Dennison.
