Thomas F. Harney

[SSlater]

I just read some of the file I have on Harney - and it's a mess. Would you believe - he was arrested in Richmond on April 3, 1865 and again on April 10. 1865 at Fairfax Station. (I wonder, which one was not Harney?) He spent half the war in Prison. (No wonder he has no Activity file). Most of the rest is all contradictions. Such as -he is said to have been born on Blair County, PA (1836+/-), yet, Blair County was formed until later. Maybe he lived in the area that became Blair Co. He arrived from Ireland with a younger girl - maybe a sister. I'll do a time-line on him, from what I have. At least he can't be in Georgia, if he is in prison somewhere else.
I have corresponded with Blair Co. and they gave me some of their history. The town was on the Wagon Trail West. There is no record of Harneys. There were some families, such as Hearney, etc. Others passed through, after a short stay.
After all this research, what have we got?
