I just found out that my great great grandfather William Carney was born in Liverpool in March 1847. The family history had always said that the family was from Ballinasloe, Galway, Ireland. William's parents were John Carney and Mary Moclair. I don't know the names of any siblings but I was told that William had a brother that went to Australia. William came to America in the late 1860's as a tailor and settled in Connecticut. He later moved to Massachusetts. If anyone has any info on this family please let me know. Thanks.
