A pleasant surprise to have so many people interested in the Carneys of Sunderland, for the record my wife's ancestors go, Peter Carney (Kearney) married Jane Mankin in 1854 their son Matthew Carney married Martha Bainbridge in 1873 and whose son Matthew married Margaret Bell in 1892 and whose son James moved to Peterborough. If anyone has any connections we would be delighted to hear from you There are several brothers and sisters along the line. i.e. Thomas, John, Jane, Elizabeth, I have one query, maybe Stan can help. On the death certificate of first Matthew Carney dated 12 March 1900 it gave the place of death as Crown inn Queen Street. I have located Queen Street on the older maps and I wondered where I might get any reference to the Inn, I trying to find out if he was a lodger there, or just a bar customer when the heart failure occurred, The certificate also states that his son Thomas was in attendance, does this mean he was with his father at the time of death or does it mean that he only identified the body afterwards. Any help or comments greatly appreciated Regards Brian. All outgoing mail scanned by Norton Anti Virus.
