Part 700d – Brunhammer Doherty Genealogy – 1878 Birth and Baptism – Great-Grandaunt Elizabeth Doherty – Wilmington, Delaware

Good day,



And this genealogy thing continues.


It is a wonder at times trying to decipher the possible discrepancies found on individual documents. I have made it a personal goal to gather as many different types of facts and near-facts as I can. I have discovered, through my searches and research... And drive to keep looking, that there are definitive differences of data and information.

Next in the discovery queue is the 1878 Baptism Registration of great-grandaunt Elizabeth Doherty. Great-Grandaunt Elizabeth was either the 9th or 10th child born to gg-grandparents Philip and Margaret (née Doherty) Doherty.

I will address the issue of 10 or 11 Doherty children, albeit great-grandaunts and great-granduncles shortly. Stay tuned.

Above is the page copy from the St. Paul's Register of Baptisms and from Item 5 of the microfilm FHL [1788084].
