The Dooley Family, later known as The Dooleys, officially ended in the early 1990s after several lineup changes and attempts to continue as The New Dooleys. The group originally included another sister, Marie Dooley, who was part of The Dooley Family before leaving the group in the early 1970s. Anne Dooley, keyboardist Helen Dooley, and bassist Bob Walsh left The Dooleys in the early 1980s and moved to South Africa.
