Hi Group I have been looking for the Sweeney list to pop up for some time. Not brave enough to start it myself. This is GREAT. I put Orlando in the title because I don't think there were to many Orlando Sweeneys out there. my Sweeney in reverse order go from Spokane Co. WA>Okanogan Co. WA to Benson Co. ND to Jefferson Co. KS > Portage Co. Ohio to PA and Ireland. I don't have any names past John Sweeney who was born in 1818, PA and Married his Second wife Christiania Hawley in Stark Co. OH in 1853. They had 10 children: Franklin C. (from his first marriage) Clara J., Irene, William Aaron (my grandfather), Orlando, Mary Ellen , Daniel Webster, Emma Grace, Henry M. and Bertha V. They All packed up and move to Jefferson Co KS in 1879. They were associated with the Church of the Brethren in Ozawkie Ks. William A. Sweeney m. Idora Francis Eshom in 1889 and their first two children were born in Ks. They move with these Children and two of Idoras teenage brothers Moses and Mel Eshom to York ND. The Rest of their other 4 kids were born there. My father being the Last born in 1906. In 1920 they show up in Okanogan Co, WA. and in 1936 they moved to Deer Park, Spokane Co. Best Wishes Ron Sweeney Spokane Wa.
