is TT DARRAGHP

The Darraghs seem all TO be Of
Irish origin. The founder of a large
family of the name was James
Darragh who was born in Darraghs-
town in Ireland. in 1742. His home
was a place inherited from his father
called Long Meadows. near MIX
Hill, not far from Enniskillen. He
was the owner OF much land and
man of unusually good education
but the tradition is that he was per-
secuted for his protestant sentiments.
James Darragh married in 1870
Christian Stafford. a granddaughter
of the Earl OF Stafford. Because OF
this all the Darraghs OF this line may
claim descent from an English Earl.
James and Christian Darragh had
two sons--one an Episcopal minis
ter and another az officer in the
Enniskillen DragSbns. The sword
and sash worn by him are still treas
ured in the family. A third son
named Robert, was born in Dar-
raghstown, in 1915. He settled in
Beaver. Pennsylvania, where he was
a merchant for many years. He was
a State senator wnen an old man
and was a pioneer of Methodlsm in
the section OF Pennsylvania In which
he lived.
Robert Darragh had a son named
