This blog is intended to give a brief account of the Doris family and its origins. It is particularly of interest to members of the Doris family whose ancestors came from Donegal (who sometimes use the variants Dorans or Dorins) but this blog will also give general information which should be of interest to any member of the Doris/Dooris/Doorish family whose ancestors originate in Ireland. (Other people with the surname Doris are not of Irish origin at all – they came from France, Slovakia, or Greece). A fuller account of the family history is to be found in the book The Doris Family of Lettermacaward by John Doris (shortly to be available through Amazon). This blog will also be used to collect and correct information about the family, with the ultimate aim of producing a revised edition of the book at some time in the future and making the information available to as many members of the family as possible.
Over the next few weeks I will be putting more information on this blog, along with questions and areas for further research, along with a number of shameless plugs for the book!
