RE: Will the real Thomas F. Harney, PLEASE STAND UP!
Progress Report: I am in the process of searching to determine if Harney had any contact in later life, with the people, he was arrested with at Fairfax Station. (Rogers, McVeigh, or Heffelbower). No GOOD LUCK, yet, but if any one else is working on this - watch out, the names are misspelled. I have Heflebower, Hellybower, Hefflybower, AND MORE - all from his prison records. Sometimes, a first name of EDWIN. I have chosen to use the name on his tombstone Heflybower. (b 17 April 1845 -d 3 April 1913) burial Rockland Cemetery, Front Royal, VA.
I did find a "Theme" that may pan out. Two of the other arrestees, each on his own, started a Flour Mill, in Mosby's Confederacy. There are several Mills still working today. AND descendants of all of the arrestees have worked in Four Mills.
PS I conclude that Heflybower pronounced his name HEFF-LEE-BOWER
