He was probably the son of John DONOHO of Worcester Co. (d. 1765) and possibly Rachel JACKSON, dau. of Joshua JACKSON and Sarah (RICHARDSON?) of Wetipquin.

Any help in sorting this out, or any info on these families at Wetipquin between 1700 and 1800 would be tremendously appreciated. I'll also be glad to share any info I have.
