and her line came from Leitrim, where two families had moved from Donegal 3-400 years ago. I have a Great Great Great Grandfather born in the late 18th century there.

I do have a pdf of the Donegal descendant line from

♂ Donal DOCHARTACH
Dochartaig 'The Destroyer', Dochartach

m. Wife of Donal DOCHARTACH
