It is very late and this is my second attempt to post and then I had an error message.So this is very short and if it goes through, I will right in more detail.I am related -- my Grandmother was Mary Jane Tanney born in the Ottawa area.She moved to Chicago when she was quite young.A Father Robert Lamping from the Chicago area wrote to me several years back with quite a bit of info on the Lampings. When I was in Ottawa some years ago I checked the archives and found a number of Tanney and Lamping ancestors.St. Patrick's church in Ottawa has marriage and baptismal records.I am also trying to find out the origin of the name Tanney.An aunt who died of multiple sclerosis some years ago had said the name was related to the Taney's of Maryland (Roger Taney) I think Roger Taney's official bio lists him as English though he was Catholic--but she died when I was very young and I never had a chance to really question her.The family lore was this branch were Loyalists and went to Canada during the Revolution.I will post more if this message goes through.
