Surnames: COONEY- BITTNER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/odB.2ACI/431 Message Board Post: Am interested in any info on Cooney or Bittner Families of Perry Co. William Cooney & his wife Hannah Bittner lived at least in Madison during 1830 and 1840, moved to Peoria Ill in 1850 and then to California in 1862. I notice there is also a Peter Cooney family during the same time frame in Madison...Anyone researching these families? Thanks, John
