down a dirt road
I barely remember
how deep I must go
into this canyon
to find the river

Household #18 - Arthur DOUGHERTY

I've been pretty excited researching the Dougherty family in River Portal.  There are only 29 households listed on the 1910 census.  Of these 21 are family dwellings - in one case with only 1 person living in the household.  The rest are boarding houses.  As I've researched the families I've found that the Dougherty family resided in at least 5 of the 21 "family dwelling" households.  That's astounding!  I've found that in at least two of the households with a different surname the wife was a Dougherty.  Even more interesting...they are all part of the same single family.  Household #18 is another son of the patriarch Thomas Dougherty.  His household will be listed later.  This son is Arthur Dougherty.
