The one recent reference I found is for a Father
John Doherty who is quoted in a .pdf file for
the Wall Street Journal on 9/12, describing
events on 9/11!:
"Father John Doherty, a Roman Catholic
priest, was on the street not far from the
Marriott Hotel adjacent to the World Trade
Center. “I was buried and dug my way out,”
he said, speaking on a stretcher in Battery
Park City a few blocks south of the ruins. He
paused to spit, and out came a wet, gray wad
of ash. In the pitch dark of the smoke, he
said, he made it to safety only by following
a guard rail that runs along the riverside.
“It’s only the finger of God that saved me,”
he said."
From this page, an .html version of the .pdf

I realize that this doesn't confirm the priest as
Father John 'P' Doherty, and that it doesn't give
you much to go on, but I thought you'd like to know.
