I'm searching for my great great grandmother, Margaret Boyle. 

Based on many DNA matches, I have reason to believe she may have been born in North West Donegal. 

She was born in October, 1849. 

Her father was James Boyle, Sr., born around 1817. 

Her mother was Mary Duggan, born in March of 1822. 

They immigrated to the U. S., around 1850, and settled in Albany, N. Y. 

Mary Duggan was the daughter of Rebecca (maiden name unknown). 

After being widowed, Rebecca married a man named Michael Doherty.
