MARGARET T. DOUGHTIE

{LEAD} Margaret Thompson Doughtie, died June 19, 1994, after a long and gallant battle with cancer first joined back in 1967 when she was forty years old.

Before her marriage she was a proofreader and copy editor in New York City. Born in Los Angeles, Calif., she was educated at the University of California, Berkeley, where she majored in art history. She had a lifetime love for fine music, and was a thoughtful opponent of bigotry and of race discrimination in any form.

{REST} Born Margaret Aileen Thompson, she was the second of two daughters of Allan Kerr Thompson, who worked as an engineer on the Hoover Dam project, and Lenorah Darrow Thompson, a relative of Clarence Darrow. Mrs. Doughtie lived successively in Hilton Head Island, S.C.; Lexington, Va.; Mountain Home, Ark.; Seattle, Wa.; and Chapel Hill, N.C., with her friend and husband of seventeen years, Charles Wilson Doughtie, who survives her as does a niece, Dr. Laura Beecher of Port Washington, N.Y.; and a sister, Darcy Gottlieb of Coral Gables, Fla.

Memorials may be made to the Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury Foundation, Irvington, Va. Services will be private. Currie Funeral Home, Kilmarnock, Va., is handling the arrangements.
