- Robert Daugherty, the youngest son of Owen II, born about 1769 in
Craven Co., NC married Sarah (Sally) Taylor, November 18, 1784 in
Craven Co., NC. She was the sister of the wife of Robert's brother,
Daniel. Robert and Sally had three children born in NC prior to their
move to KY. Elizabeth Daugherty, born 1784, Sina T. Daugherty, born
1786, and Mary T. Daugherty, born 1793. Sugsequent to the death of
his father, Owen II, in 1785, and his mother in 1786, Robert received
the "land and plantation" of Owen II, according to Owen's Will. With
the land and plantation, Robert appeared to be established in NC.
Nevertheless, he pulled up roots ten years later, in 1795, and moved.
Although Robert ultimately settled in KY prior 1808 when a daughter
married, from NC, he may have first traveled to Ireland and remained
there for a few years, before returning to KY where his brothers had
re-established. In KY Robert was a minister, as he had been in NC. He
settled in Warren Co. on top of a hill, known locally as "Hadley
Hill", on what is now known as highway 231. After the move from NC,
two other children were born; Anna wo's birthplalce is unknown, and
Robert's youngest child, Peter Daugherty, who was born in Ireland in
1798. Robert Daugherty died in Dec 1844 in Warren Co., KY. His wife,
Sarah, had previously died in 1828 in Warren Co., KY. (Source: Hal
