Hi Carol,
Here's what I have even though it's not much. I have more on James'
children if you'd like
Matthew Carney
James Henry Carney b. June 24, 1885 d. Oct. 1957 (Nashville, Davidson
Co,
Tenn) married Earnest Carter b. April 5, 1885 d. Sept. 24, 1977
(Hunts.
Madison Co. AL)
Children of James and Earnest:
Woodford Matthew Carney b. Jan 23, 1905
Otis Lee Carney b. June 1, 1907
William Lawrence Carney b. Nov 22, 1909
Willis Gerstle Carney b. March 6, 1913
James Burton Carney b. Sept 26, 1915
Alfred Farris Carney b. Feb 2, 1920
Jewel Earnestine Carney b. Jan 21, 1923
Mary Gladys Carney: Living (my grandmother)
Lee Farris Carney b. Sept 5, 1928
Emma Carney m. unknown Lemmons (died before 1930??, Emma possibly
remarried)
My grandmother remembers Lester Carney b.Nov 27, 1904 and John as
either
nephews or cousins (possible one of each) of James Henry living in
Cave
City
and Park City in Barren Co. Kentucky. I have yet to prove the
connection
other than her words. If Lester was a nephew of James it is possible that
John was a brother of James.
I have little more to go on but still checking other leads. Would love to
see if there's a connection.
Thanks,
Kymm
