Sorry, but I have no old records of Maloneys in Terre Haute.My father was born in Oklahoma and did not come to Terre Haute until mid 1930's after the depression to seek work ... lived with his maternal uncle who was a lawyer in town.
My Maloney grandfather may have had his family roots in Pennsylvania ... I have a letter his mother wrote from Elmenton, PA in March 1914.In 1967 my father, sister and I visited Maloney cousins in Latrobe, PA ... these were people from the Maloney side of the family my father had heard of but never met. Being young at the time, I did not pay too close attention to how they fit into the family.They are the side of the family I am interested in learning more about.
There was another Maloney family in TH when I was growing up (1950-1967) but we were not related to them.A Thomas Maloney graduated from Indiana State University in TH in 1963 ... was thinking he was from that family.
In the TH phone book of 1987-88 there are two listings for Maloney ... a Michael Maloney and my parents' listing. The internet white pages directory presently has two Maloney listed in TH - Mary & Leon Maloney and Rosetta Maloney.Am not acquainted with these people.
