Pauline,
My 3 x great grandmother was Ellen Kearney. She originated from County Kilkenny, Ireland.
However, she ended up in St. John's, Newfoundland where she met Joseph Morrssey.
Together, they had 4 kids od which I am aware. Any connection?

Hello my name is Pauline Carney ,
My mother recently passed away, My father a number of years ago , when going
through some belongings I came across some birth , marriage records ,
And triggered my search into my family history if some one knows of any of the
following details it would be a great help.
My father was Kevin Carney of lower Kersall, Manchester.
His father was Thomas Carney, Born in 1888 in Scotland .
his birth certificate shows as Thomas Cairney , this was later changed to Carney
. (I do not know reason ) I have a war badge for him dated 1914 his station was
cork.
In 1930 , he married my grand mother May Shawcross in glossop,
They somehow ended up in Manchester
This is all I know at present.
