The persons in this tree are linked to where they appear.
Their relations to Thomas Dooley are given in the popups.
Records are scarce for the first generations after Mathias Shaup and Catharina Engert.
Some sources give different dates and different lists of children.
Many dates are approximate; many are missing.
This accounting is merely our compilation of what we’ve found
with our best guesses. In several cases, it’s merely incomplete.
