Hello,
My sisters and I recently continued with the Carney family research that my aunt started
many years ago. Our gggrandfather was also Thomas Carney. Thomas was from a small fishing
village called Aghada in County Cork. My aunt's notes say Thomas married Mary Kelley
but my research shows her name might have been Bridget Kelley. Her notes also say that
Thomas died in the Civil War--no other detailes on that yet. Do you have this about
Thomas? Edmond, my ggrandfather, was born in Spenser, MA in 1861. Edmond married Mary
Jane Baker from Sharon VT in 1886. There was talk growing up that MJ Baker was a Native
American Indian, but I have no proof of this. Do you have anything to indicate that this
is true? In July 1887 my grandfather, Thomas L. Carney, was born in Spenser, MA to Edmond
and Mary. In 1911, my grandfather Thomas married my grandmother, Ellen(Donovan)Carney.
They had my aunt Theresa Carney and her younger sister and my mother Frances Carney. I
look forward to your resp!
onse.
