February 28, 2013 - Harriet Elizabeth Daugherty (1844-1907)

I'm still sharing information on the children of James William Daugherty and Harriet Beddows.  Martha E. Daugherty was the 7th of their children.  I must thank Ellen L. for her dedicated research on this family and for sharing so willingly.  Ellen's ancestor is Harriet Elizabeth Daugherty.

Martha E. Daugherty, also known as Millie was born in 1844 in Iowa and died 11/23/1907 in Parnell, Missouri.  She never married.  She lived in the home of her sister, Harriet and her husband, Joseph Hayworth for some 15 years.  At her death a newspaper article states she was seldom seen by anyone.  She is buried in the Rose Hill/St Joseph/Parnell Cemetery, Parnell, Missouri.

Harriet Elizabeth Daugherty, was born 8/17/1849 in Centerville, Appanoose County, Iowa and died 2/21/1933 in Parnell, Missouri.  Harriet Elizabeth was also known as Hattie.  Harriet E. Daugherty married on 2/1/1870 in Appanoose County, Iowa to Joseph Hayworth (7/17/1849 Unionville, Appanoose County, Iowa-11/11/1940 Parnell, Missouri.)  I have noted this marriage date to also be 2/1/1869.  In the 1880 Federal Census Harriet and Joseph Hayworth are found in White Cloud Township in Nodaway County, Missouri with six of their ten children.  In the 1900 Federaral Cenus they are found in the Worth Township of Nodaway County, Missouri with their three youngest children.  In 1910 Harriet and Joseph Hayworth are living in Independence Township, Nodaway County, Missouri with two of their older children.  The 1920 Federal Census finds them in Parnell, Independence Township, Nodaway County, Missouri with one of their older children living with them.  Joseph and Harriet Hayworth are buried in Parnell, Nodaway County, Missouri cemetery.  Joseph and Harriet Hayworth had ten children:

Effie Jane Hayworth was born 2/13/1872 in Peoria, Illinois and died 5/1/1960 in Maryville, Nodaway County, Missouri.  On 9/10/1893 in Gaynor, Missouri she married Elbert Edward Dowis (2/31/1892 in Sheridan, Worth County, Missouri - 4/1/1958 Maryville, Missouri)  Effie taught school in a country school in Gaynor which is still standing as well as surrounding areas.  Effie and Elbert Dowis had seven children; Wilbur H. Dowis (3/5/1894 - 10/13/1918), Cleola May Dowis (5/31/1898-3/18/1978; Zola Faye Dowis (4/19/1901 - 10/1986); Eula Hattie Dowis (12/26/1906 - 2/5/1985); Leta Alice Dowis (1910-1987); Velma Viola Dowis (1911-4/14/2006); William Dale Dowis (1913-3/13/1994).  I (Ellen L.) have some additional information on these children on file.  Effie and Elbert Dowis are buried in the Brethren Cemetery in Nodaway County, Missouri.

Dellie Hayworth, was born 3/3/1873 in Graham, Nodaway County, Missouri and died 8/7/1879 at the age of six.  It is said she died in a house fire.  She is buried in the Groves Cemetery, Nodaway County Missouri.
