We have Catherine Carney in our family but I do not think this is a
relation. We have researched our Carney connections (my mother was a
Carney) in the South Mayo Geneological Society as they originated from
County Mayo. Your Carneys may also have been from County Mayo, where the
name is common (as opposed to Kearney which is common all over Ireland).

Subject: [CARNEY-L] Families
Looking for information on Elizabeth Fitzgerald b. 1868 - 1880? and
Catherine Carney b. 1868. Catherine m. Michael Pellegrino 1896 and lived
in Brooklyn, NY until her death in 1936.
Does anyone know if there is a connection between the two families
(Fitzgerald/Carney), could they be related? Relatives have said that they
were from Ireland and just wondered if they could have been cousins.
Thank you,
Mary Ann
