Possessors of one of the most ancient hereditary surnames in Europe, the Dohertys of today can lay claim to a proud descent from no less a heroic figure than the fifth century Irish warrior king Niall of the Nine Hostages. From their ancient homeland in present day County Donegal they steadfastly resisted the invader, ultimately paying dearly for their defiant stance. In more peaceful times, and in the world of popular music, Pete Doherty, born in Northumberland, England, in 1979, and formerly of the band The Libertines, is the controversial singer with the band Babyshambles. Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1940, Denny Doherty was the Canadian singer and songwriter who, along with Cass Elliot, John Phillips, and Michelle Phillips, was a founding member of the hugely successful 1960s band The Mamas and the Papas. Presented here is the proud and stirring saga of the Dohertys.
