Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 7th ed., Harrison Co. DR. W. H. DAUGHERTY was born in Harrison County, Ky., March 20, 1835, and is the eldest of a family of six children born to James and Mary F. (Thompson) Daugherty. James Daugherty was born in Harrison County, Ky. He was a farmer and mechanic all his life, and died in 1867 from exposure in the Federal Army in 1863. He was a son of Henry Daugherty, who was a native of Ireland, and was in the war of 1812. Mrs. Mary F. Daugherty was a native of Kentucky, and a daughter of T. T. Thompson, who was a large land owner in Grant and Harrison Counties. Dr. W. H. Daugherty was reared in Harrison County, and educated at the common schools in the country. He commenced to read medicine in 1858 under Dr. Risk. He attended lectures at the Cincinnati College of Medicine and Surgery, at Cincinnati, and graduated in 1861. He has always been a successful physician. In 1882 he changed his way of administering medicine from the allpathic to the homoeopathic, and he seems well satisfied with the change, still retaining a good practice. In addition to practicing medicine, farming and other interests, he established a drug store, in Corinth in 1885, with T. M. Mozingo as manager, the firm name being T. M. Mozingo & Co. Dr. Daugherty owns about 600 acres of land in Grant County, and 400 acres in Kansas, and some property in Texas and Tennessee. He is Royal Arch Mason, and a Democrat, though frequently voting the Prohibition ticket. December 28, 1860, he married Miss A. B. Mozee, of Grant County, daughter of George Mozee. Mr. and Mrs. Daugherty are both consistent members of the Christian Church, the Doctor having been an elder and Sunday school superintendent in said church for about twenty years. He has been charitable and liberal with his means, spending much of his time and means in the cause of education, orphan children seeming to have been his special charge, several of whom have been liberally educated by him, and hold positions of influence and usefulness in the church and society.
