Richard Bomond Harney & Grace Annie Harney md. 1843 Carlow
I am searching for Richard Bomond Harney, son of Benjamin Harney & Margaret Adair, and Grace Annie Harney, daughter of William & Elizabeth Harney, who md. c1843 (in Carlow?)Grace was in the U.S. by the 1830s, Richard came in the 1840s.They had a child in New York City in 1844.A marriage license bond (Ossory, Ferns & Leighlin) was found by a researcher in Ireland for a couple by this name dated 1843. Would this be a marriage by proxy or would the bride have traveled back to Ireland to marry?Any idea where in Carlow to search for these families?They always lived in New York City, had a "fancy store", so assume they were from a city in Ireland.I don't know if the parents came to the U.S. or remained in Ireland.Any suggestions would be appreciated.
