Surname: PAISLEY, CARNEY
-------------------------
Hello. My name is Jonathan Paisley and my great-great-grandfather's name
was Jerry Beale Paisley from Yale, MI. In Yale he owned the Hotel Paisley.
The 1910 Soundex Listing for Carneys in Michigan list Clair Carney and
Al Carney as enummerated with Jerry Paisley in Yale, MI.
I had passed it off that they were full time residents of the Hotel or
possibly they were on the staff and lived there. However my grandmother
mentioned today that Jerry Paisley's son Harry Paisley had a sister that
moved away (possibly to Florida) named Clair.
Harry was born in 1887. Clair Carney in 1889 (listed as 21 y/o at 1910
census). Al Carney is listed as 44 on the same census.
Could it be that Clair Paisley could have been married to Al Carney and
still living in the hotel?
I have not found any marraige records to support this theory, nor have
a found a complete list of Jerry Paisley's children. I also find no record
of Clair in anyone's Carney family tree. So...does anyone know who Clair
Carney is? Is she Harry's sister?
