Matthew Carney, son of Solomon Carney & Mary Belcher was born 1822 and died 1902. His
first wife was Anna Sharpnack (married 1845). After Anna's death in 1873, Matthew
married a woman by the first name of Matilda in 1890. Matthew died in 1902, Matilda died
in 1912.
Matilda had been married once prior, to widower Dudley D. McCloud (he was married to
Sidney Jackson until her death). She had at least one child with Dudley, Myrtle McCloud,
who married Walter Lee Hudson of Wetzel County - later settled in the Cambridge, Guernsey
County, Ohio area.
Matilda is a mystery - she was supposedly born 24 Mar 1837 in Maryland and her parents
born in Virginia. Matilda died 25 Nov 1912.
I am trying to determine what her maiden name was, who her parents were and where she may
be buried. She died in Anthem, Wetzel County, WV. The same area that Dudley McCloud may
have died as well. I am unable to locate Dudley's burial location either.
Maybe someone in the Matthew Carney family line can help shed some light on all of this?
