Many of the questions I had about my great-grandfather Michael Dougherty had been answered before we got to the Ulster Folk Park, which is a place in Tyrone that basically explains the Scott-Irish immigration to the United States. But it helped me understand some lingering questions. I knew that he left from Moville on the Inishowen Peninsula, but I didn't know how he got there if you read these couple of signs it explains how he got from Leitrim and then to Derry and then to Moville, where he and his cousin left for the United States in April of 1870 and landed at Castle Gardens in New York. These are all signs and pictures from the Ulster Folk Park. |
