Ok. This is what I've done.
1) I created NS1/NS2 nameservers at my registrar for my host domain pointing to my Digital Ocean IP address.
2) I pointed my hosted domain to my host domain NS1/NS2 servers
3) In My DNS Manager I have 2 domains, my host domain and my hosted domain both with the automatically created records (I had not created any records for my hosted domain when I first posted for help). My host domain has content and resolves. After creating these records for my hosted domain. It too now resolves. Problem solved.
Is this the "standard" way to handle this, or is there a better or recommended way to handle this setting up of a hosted domain
