researching this family.
Correspondence with Catherine "Kitty" Harney, of Ballymacarbery, Co. Waterford, who is the family genealogist.  She did much of the research on this line.
She says that Timothy Harney died young and Elenor (Ryan) Harney had to leave the farm in Kilgainey (likely evicted).  She returned to her old home in
Knockalisheen where the Ryan family still lives.  She left her daughter, Catherine, with Timothy's sister, Catherine (Harney) O'Neill, in Derrinlaur (near
Kilgainey), where she was raised.  The family burial place is in Killaloan, just across the river Suir from Kilgainey and Derrinlaur.  Two interesting
gravestones in this plot are John Harney, d.1753, aged 69; and John Harney, d.age 21, about 1801.  In the same row there is the stones of Denis O'Neill and
his wife Catherine (Harney), who died in 1859, aged 80.  Timothy also had a sister who married a Casey, since he had a niece named Margaret Casey, who
married Edmond Fogarty.  The Fogartys are buried in Killaloan, beside the Harneys and O'Neills.  Timothy probably had brothers also, but the names have not
been traced. (Nov 1999). Email: [email protected]
Correspondence with Roxanne Harney, who is researching this family (1999).  She has GEDCOM file, MyFamily.com.

Notes:
Margaret Doheney was married first to Patrick MULCAHY, by whom she had several children.  Then she married James HARNEY, and had the children listed here.

Patrick J. Harney immigrated to Australia first, followed in 1880, by Thomas, Margaret & Kate.  Bridget Melvin arrived in 1884, and married Thomas in Bundaberg in
1885.  The family acquired property in the Isis Scrub, 20 miles south of Bundaberg, near the town of Childers.  It is sugar cane country and farming became
the family occupation.

Brian Rough has a photo of James Harney & Margaret Doheny.  All of the Harneys were over 6 feet tall.
