Following is a copy of the certificate of the land grant of two hundred acres issued by the Crown to John Daugharty. During the 1770s John Daugharty married Nancy and they became parents to one child, Dempsey who was born in 1777. It is not known if they had any more children. John served in 1781 as a private in the South Carolina Militia during the
Revolutionary War. About 1800, John and Nancy moved from South Carolina to Tattnall County, Georgia.
