Biography

Hugh Dolan is the first person in this Dolan family known to come to the United States from Ireland. According to 1790 Census, he is the immigrant ancestor of Dolan family in America. Hugh and his wife, Rachel Robinson, were married before 1784 in Ireland before coming to America.

According to the 1810 Census: Hugh and Rachel were living in Monroe Township, Monroe County, Virginia with three sons and one daughter. [1]

  1. Rachel Dolan Lynch 1786–1857
  2. John Dolan 1789–1860
  3. Mark Dolan 1794–1856
  4. Matthew Alexander Dolan 1800–1840

Hugh likely passed away in about 1816 or 1817 in Monroe County, Virginia, as he last appeared in the county personal tax list for 1816 and his wife Rachel appeared on that list in 1817. [2]

Hugh is believed to have been born in Ireland although I am not aware of any document that confirms this or the date of his arrival in America. The earliest record I have found for him is an entry in the Greenbrier County, Virginia (now West Virginia) personal tax list for 1793. He appears consistently in Greenbrier and (after its split from Greenbrier) Monroe County personal tax lists from 1793 through to 1816.
