James (sylcarney),
My father, Eugene Carney, was from Cloonmahane near Killina and Elphin. I too have an
extensive family tree going back to C1724 and I'm wondering if there is a connection.
My grandfather was Owen Carney b.1873, his father was Michael Carney b.C1834 and
Michael's father was Patrick Carney who was born C1795; Patrick's father was
another Patrick Carney b.1764. There are missing links in some generations where sons of
the family may have emigrated. We know of two brothers, Patrick and Thomas Carney, who
are said to have emigrated to Kansas but we know nothing more of them after they left
Ireland; they were brothers of Michael Carney so would have been born some time in the
late 1820s or the 1830s. James, if you would care to send me your email address I'd be
happy to forward my family tree. Happy Christmas - Catherine.
