Father Bartholomew Kearney, b. Abt 1813/1814, Ireland Find all individuals with events at this location, d. 25 Jun 1891 (Age ~ 77 years) Mother Margaret Hanrahan, b. Abt 1817, Clare, Ireland Find all individuals with events at this location, d. 30 Nov 1901, Doonbeg, Clare, Ireland Find all individuals with events at this location (Age ~ 84 years) Notes CHILDREN: The older children appear as follows in the index to Kilkee baptisms: Kearney Bridget Batt Margt Hanrahan 10/09/1841 Carney Catherine Barth Margt Hanrahan 01/12/1842 Carney Anne Barth Margt Hanrahan 01/10/1844

CHILDREN: After a long gap and the separation of the parishes in 1855 two more children were baptised in Doonbeg parish - James of Doonbeg on 15 Jul 1856 and another Bridget with no address on 31 Dec 1858.

CHILDREN: Michael does not appear in either index, but he registered his mother's death.

CHILDREN: Mary does not appear in either index, but was enumerated with her mother in 1901 and erected a tombstone to her brother Michael.

CHILDREN: According to Mary Arkins-93796 (e-mail 6 May 2017 to P J M Waldron-1, quoting her father Pakie Maloney-78433), Bartholomew and Margaret's family included the following: 1. Mary (Mamie) had a shop in Doonbeg; 2. Michael (Micky) got killed from a horse age 49; 3. Bridget married Chambers and emigrated to Pennsylvania; 4. Ellen [sic] married Considine and lived in Ireland.

CHILDREN: The only evidence that Honor (wife of Sinan McGrath) belongs in this family is that she had a daughter Bridget McGrath who is probably the Brid McGrath enumerated with her grandmother Margaret in 1901; however, that Bridget might also be a daughter of Thomas McGrath-65710 and Margaret Carney-109888.

CHILDREN: Margaret Carney-109888 (wife of Thomas McGrath) must be another child of Bartholomew Kearney-92190 and Margaret Hanrahan-109889 as Margaret jr. was married in Doonbeg parish in 1877 and Bartholomew was the only Kearney or variant in that parish in 1855. The civil record of the marriage confirms that the bride's father was Bat Karney. The index to Kilmacduane baptisms should also be checked to confirm whether one of her unidentified children was a daughter named Bridget. Margaret's son Michael not only became a blacksmith, like Bartholomew and many of his other descendants, but took over Bartholomew's forge in Doonbeg village. Margaret's son James took over Mary Kearney's shop across the road and a field and sheds (still there in Dolores Murrihy's childhood) on the same side as the forge. According to Dolores Murrihy-4237 (e-mail 26 Apr 2017 to P J M Waldron-1), Denis McGrath-12844 (greatgrandson of Margaret Carney-109888) is aware of his relationship to Mike Pence-93983 (GGgrandson of Anne Kearney-41764); Denis told Dolores that Micky Matt McGrath-12684 and Peter Maloney-41767 were first cousins, confirming that their respective mothers Margaret and Anne were sisters, and that Denis and Mike Pence are third cousins once removed.

CHILDREN: Bartholomew and Margaret could also be the parents of the only other Carney man with children in the index to Doonbeg baptisms - Pat Carney m. Margt. Neylon, probably just after the separation of the parishes in 1855, and had Mary baptised on 22 Mar 1857, Michael baptised on 9 Oct 1859 and possibly other children during Fr. Neylon's tenure for which no register survives. There is no address for either of these children in Mick Blake's transcript. This may be Margaret's baptism from the Kilkee index: Nealon Margt Michael Cath Brein 17/04/1837 Kathy Defonso of Florida ("the daughter of Helen Cash who was the daughter of Mary Catherine Kearney Harrington who was the daughter of Catherine Kearney Harrington who was the daughter of Patrick and Margaret") has posted a number of queries about this family, including at http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/IRL-CLARE/2004-08/109... and at http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/IRL-CLARE/2006-01/113... (where she appears to have mistakenly assumed that the address in the nearest baptism records in the register (Clohanes in both cases) was the Carneys' address) and https://www.ancestry.com/boards/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=4009&p=locali... and https://www.ancestry.com/boards/thread.aspx?m=6992&p=localities.bri... (where she gives the above garbled line of descent). Another descendant, Mary Skewis, mentioned in some of the above posts, wrote in Mar 2005 at http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/guests2005.htm I would like to add my thanks to the staff of Clare County Library for all their efforts. I am researching the Kearney and Neylon families from Doonbeg, Co. Clare. I visited the area a few years ago, but did not have an occasion to get to the Library. Hopefully I will get there again some day, and will make a point of visiting them. Mary Skewis, Upper Michigan, USA Kathy has (a) a ship's manifest on which Patrick Carney, 24, and Margaret, 21, along with two children, Mary, 3, and Michael, infant, sailed to the USA on 26 Jul 1861 and (b) a written account from a cousin stating "Margaret Nealon born in Doonbeg April 16,1837"; see her e-mail of 17 Apr 2017 to Dolores Murrihy-4237. If Margaret Nealon was born in Doonbeg, then we would expect her to be in either a Nealon or Carney household in Killard civil parish in Griffith's Valuation in 1855. There are just two N*l*n occupiers and just one Carney or variant (Bartholomew) in the parish. Plots 36 and 37 in Caherlean in Griffith's Valuation were occupied by Patrick Nealon, probably father of James Neylon-11008, but this is probably a different family. Michael Nealon occupied both a small house (no. 25b) with rateable annual valuation of only 5 shillings on one of Bartholomew Carney's plots and also (no. 51) his own plot of 3 acres and 10 perches, both in Doonbeg. The Carney and Nealon houses are at http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,497229,665591,11,9 and https://goo.gl/maps/AZ1dyZFBjju Carney's house was apparently on the north side of the road and Nealon's on the south side according to the Griffith's Valuation maps and there is a Smithy in the corner of Carney's plot. There is a modern development of council houses on the Carney side of the road, but a couple of much older looking houses on the Nealon side of the road.
