Anthony, Sorry this has been lying around so long. I had meant to answer much earlier. My apologies for letting it lie around. First, my side of the family: I am certainly happy to share what I have on other descendants of Capt. John Looney. I have more for some branches than for others. (1). Paul Sarrett, Jr.'s "Surratt/Sarratt/Sarrett Families of America" has quite a bit of information on this line, with a fair number of notes and sources to document the information in his family tree. See http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=prsjr&id=I4358 for Capt John Looney's family in that database. He has some descendants of John Jr., Robert and Martin. (2). One other descendancy from your Robert (son of Capt John) is partially given in the Crane book (on p379-L.L.Howell entry) (3). Capt. John Looney's son Moses descendants are not given in Paul Sarrett's dbase. However, these are pretty well documented by Moses' descendant, Larry Johnson. For more, see Larry's website(http://home.flash.net/~johnsonl/), as well as his immediate family history "The Looney Family: Colonial America to Rosebud, TX", at <http://home.flash.net/~johnsonl/looney.htm> for more on this family branch. (4). Paul Sarrett's dbase has not traced Lucinderella and John III Looney's children Louvicia Annie and Salina Caroline Looney, but these are primary to my line so I have quite a bit of information on descendants of these two sisters who married Thompson brothers [Saline Caroline (Caroline) married James T. Thompson on 31 Oct 1866 and Louvicia Annie married my I have most (but not all) descendants of this last union, as well as the Thompson ancestors who were also in VA before the American Revolution (from Ireland.) Calvin Mitchell <cmitch13@erols.com> has provided quite a bit of information on descendants of James & Caroline's 2nd eldest son Patrick H. Thompson and Al Franklin <fdu@mindspring.com> or <al@fdu.com> has provided similar information on descendants of their youngest son Walter Jefferson Thompson. I can send any or all of the above detailed information to any Looney descendant who wants more details, but will not try to post all that on the LOONEY-L. Jim ==================== Second, I am a bit confused as to your own lineage. There seems to be a discrepancy. (a). Your Jan 20, 2004 email stated << . . .glad to find someone else descending from Captain John Looney. I descend from one of his sons, Robert Looney b. 1774 and married Susannah Williams, then Robert William Looney, then William Pinkney Looney.>> (b). From page 323 of the Madge Looney Crane and Phillip Crane book, << Grant Dewayne Looney < Anthony Glenn Looney < Glen James Looney < Robert Lafayette Looney < John Pleasant Looney < William Pinkney Looney < William Gravelly (Bill) Looney < William M. Looney < Michael Looney, Sr. < Absalom Looney < Robert Looney, Sr. >> (c). The descendancy in item (b) above [down as far as Wm Pinkney Looney] is supported by Family Tree: S walls a13499 [Looney] < http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GED&db=:a13499&id=I2954> My questions: (1). Are there two William Pinkney Looneys coming out of different lines (Absolom and Robert Jr.)? and/or (2). Are there two Anthony Looneys (i.e., both descended from different William Pinkney Looneys) OR (3) is one of those descendancies incorrect. Please confirm your descendancy and let me know of any discrepancies that you see in the above. Much appreciated.

I am searching for the family of Lydia Looney b. about 1808 in Ga. who married Levi London in Maury Co., Tn. on 1/22/1829. Their children were John C. b. 1/3/1835; Nancy b. 1837; Joseph R. b. 1840; Cartata/Sarah b. 1842; Christopher Columbus b. 1/9/1845; George W. b. 1846 (the last two fought in the Civil War); James b. 1849; and Martha Adaline b. 1849. I know some of the Looney's were in Ga., but which one moved to Maury Co., tn.? There is a Joseph C. Looney who married Permelia Wright, about the 1807 in Ga., but I can't find who his parents were? They both had a dau named Adaline. By the 1860 census Joseph C's family was listed as Luna still living in Ga. I would reallu appreciate any clue. this has been my dead end for a very long time now.
