C. Kelly is listed in the 1860 Coosa Co.,census, initials only. I cannot find him after the war. Alabama did a State census in 1866, to find out how many sons were lost in the civil war, and my Jacob shows that four sons served, but two died. My g grandfather Tyre Kelly, survived, there were three others, one I have accounted for as his burial is recorded in a Northern prison, leaves two sons I have not accounted for. I think one was to young to leave home and I have found him in the home guard. This leaves a W. C. Kelly that must have died during the war. The info I have on this W. C. is from the 1860 census, and based on that data he would have been born ca 1841, and I know he would have been born in South Carolina. The strange part of all this is that the name Joseph Marvin runs in my Kelly line also. My g grandfather's brother was Joseph Si Louis Kelly who lived in Clanton, Alabama, (Chilton Co., AL). Joseph also named a son Joseph Marivn. http://www.palmettoroots.org/Family_Kelly.html The above site will take you to a history of my Kelly line. If you looked for the red III, Johannes Kolle, follow the line of son F. George Kelly b. 4 Oct 1782, thru son 6. Jaoob Kelly b. 6 Apr 1816, as this is the Kelly line that moved to Coosa Co. AL. These Kellys settled in Coosa/Elmore/Chilton County. If you will e-mail me with your address, I have a file I can send to you that has the family of Jacob documented if you want a copy.
