RE: Edward P. Doherty
It's possible, Laurie, but I would imagine it's very distant. John Conger emigrated from England to America in 1665, according to family historian and descendent Ethel C. Heagler in her 1944 pamphlet Conger History, 1664 1941. Maxine Crowell Leonard, another descendent who in 1972 privately published The Conger Family of America writes that the entire Conger family descended from John Conger and his six sons, with her research showing only 37 broken genealogical lines. By most accounts there were about 100 men named Conger who fought during the Civil War. Probably the best-known Conger (or the one that I seem to always run into) was Arthur L. Conger.
