Family history
Added by keen2hs on 6 Oct 2008
This family immigrated in the 1750s and had British ties before the Rev. War. They were Protestants from County Donegal, primarily the area near Derry. Many of the early Catholics "became Protestant" for survival. And, in later years of famine and strife left the NW of Ireland for Roscommon and the eastern counties of Ireland for monetary reasons. And, immigrated to the USA. This early branch was never Catholic in this country and remained staunch Protestants to present day. They married the Ruddells and Hites and Bowmans, which were Protestant families. The Missouri branch emigrated in 1817 from KY and TN, with the descendants of James Mulherin remaining in TN. They were Baptists and members of the Ramsey Creek Church in Pike County, MO

Charles Mulherin Sr. was born about 1710 in Ireland (probably in Donegal County-see below).
He migrated to PA about 1750 and then to SC. He received Bounty Land for evolutionary
War service in the militia. His wife is unknown.
The Mulherins were of devoutely religious lineage and were hereditary stewards of the early Irish Christian Church, apparently Catholic (questionable-see below).
Their native county was Donegal and later moved to Rascommon. They were staunchly Protestant during and after their immigration to Amercia.
Ref: John Ruddell of the Shenandoah Valley by H. Smutz
Charles, Jr. served in the militia in the Revolution from SC, possibly as a
sergeant. He received Bounty Land in SC for his service. The land for both he
and his father was in District 96, Abbeville, SC.
His will was dated March 17, 1789 and appraisers were appointed April 7, 1789.
This will disposed of both Bounty Land tracts, therefore Charles Sr. must have
already died. The grants were dated 1787. Charles Sr received 183 acres and
Charles Jr received 200 acres all in District 96, "on the shores of Twelve Mile
River." Griffith and Allied Families by Loraine Harting, 3 Apr 1985.
James, John, Jane and probably William Mulherin moved to Davidson County TN in
an area near Nashville. This was land the Indians claimed so it was not too
safe. William was killed by the Indians.
