HARNEY FAMILY listed on 1870 Dixon Co, NE census
In researching my g-grandfather, Michael Joseph DESMOND, I saw the following "HARNEY FAMILY" listed on the 1870 census at the PONCA, DIXON COUNTY, NE site.
Eliza HARNEY(age 35)born in Ireland
John HARNEY(age 15)born in MA
Henry HARNEY(age 13)born in IL
Nellie HARNEY (age 11)born in IL
Mary HARNEY(age 9)born in IL
There was no husband/father listed and as my g-grandfather's family was listed directly under theirs, perhaps he worked for Eliza and helped run her 100 acre farm.I would be interested in learning where members of this HARNEY family are buried as my g-grandparents lost five children while living in Ponca, date/place unknown.If anyone knows of this family, please contact me at [email protected], Darlene Hewitson
