Hi,
Thank you for your message.
Have you tried looking in the 1901/1911 census records to see if there were any Feeney?s living in the area at the time? You can search these here:

It may be an idea to place this message in a more local forum also, such as a newspaper/letter, in the hope that someone who recognises the name may make a connection with you. Some possible places you could do this are:
The Galway Advertiser: http://www.advertiser.ie/galway
The Connaught Tribune: http://www.galwaynews.ie/connachttribune
The Tuam Herald: http://www.tuamherald.ie/
Alternatively you could contact the East Galway Family History Society for assistance-however a fee may apply. Here are their contact details:
