Surnames: Connelly Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/zV.2ADI/1697 Message Board Post: Hello, I'm trying to find a death date and other information on a Thomas J. Connelly. Thomas was born in Keokuk, Lee County Iowa in 1882. According to his father's obituary, Thomas passed away in Oakland 1912-1913. I'm hoping to locate a death date so I can order a death certificate and possibly find where he is buried. I've not been able to find him as yet, so am unsure as well if he married and raised a family while in Oakland. If you have any connection to the family, or any suggestions, I would be most appreciative. Regards, Shelby
