Notes - Sally Ann Kearney is believed to be from Ireland, and related to the North Carolina/Tennessee Carney's. Her family died of a fever enroute to their new land and she was placed as a child with her cousins/relatives in America. The exact relationship with her American family cannot be determined, but she did marry her distant cousin Iklannabee who from that point forward began using his and her families surname and was from then known as John Carney among whites, while maintaining his Choctaw name among the Indians.
Additional supporting info from Bill Carney:
"This is how the story is still told by the old-timers around the Tilton, MS area (lower Lawrence Co.). I haven't been able to confirm through research. ...Sally Carney was taken in by another family after her's all died of a fever enroute from Ireland. Married Ikenaby who took her last name."
