Dougherty, Charles Medley, 1844-1932
Description:
Charles M. Dougherty (1844-1932) son of James and Elizabeth Dougherty. The only son of James and Elizabeth Dougherty, Charles
tried unsuccessfully for years to incorporate a plot of land he had inherited from his father as the "City of Dougherty" from
the then-unincorporated town of Dublin. In 1907, he registered a map with the board of supervisors showing a 10-acre town
to be called "Dougherty." The town never developed since the Irish-dominated board members consistently rebuffed him. Page
