He Jem have a newspaper clipping from the 1930;s I can post a copy it to you. All I know
is my Nana Winifred Hett whose Mother was Mary Ann Carney born 1852 in Rugeley
Staffordshire to John Carney born 1789 Ireland and mary Carney nee Lyon (I think) born
1819 Ireland said he was her uncle so I know he wasnt born far away and surmise maybe his
Dad Michael was John's brother and they may have come over together round 1850 and
settled near each other. My Carneys had a boarding house 22-23 Elmore lane , Rugeley from
1851 for many years and I am trying to trace Decendants and was trying to find Jems too
hoping to find a link. There are still Carney's in Rugeley but I need to spend time
there and unravel the tangled web as a few streets away was another family with parents
john and Mary and same named children so it will take some time and also to find where in
Ireland! Did you know Jem was also bodyguard to Edward V11
