This blog has been set up to share and receive family history information regarding the Mahorney family, especially in and around Harrison County, Kentucky.

Henry Mahorney moved to Harrison County from Virginia sometime before 1824. He married Catherine Corder on July 14, 1824 in Harrison County. Their known children were: Alcinda, John Thomas, Sarah, Smith, Margaret E, William Henry, Catherine and Louisa. I will be adding additional information regarding these children in later posts.

I do not know where Henry and Catherine were buried, but do know that at least some of their children were buried in the Mount Pleasast Cemetery in Oddville.

It is believed that Henry was the son of Austin and Jemimah Mahorney from Fauquier County, Virginia though I have no documented proof.

There was also a rather large pocket of Mahorneys in Henry County, Kentucky and I would like to find the link to these Mahorneys if anyone has done that research.

I will be posting more info and photos as time passes. I would welcome your comments and assistance and corrections to the material posted.
