Hi, I am still searching for information on a William (N.?) Kelly b: 7-13-1862 D: 2-11-1942 Wayne Co TN or posible Warren Co TN. This is my gr grandfather. My mother thinks he is buried in the old Railroad Church Cemt. near Fairview TN. He married Sara Elizabeth Jane Brewer (granny Jane) on 2-16-1982. Thier children were Sim,Dick, Steve, George, Johnnis, Lizza, Liza, Hedy Jewell. The family lived in or near Iron City TN. I have been told William (gr grandfather) had several brothers and sister because his father lived to be over 100 years old. My mother says she remembers them talking about him having a baby at the age of 90 and was married several times. I think that Williams parents were Richard Kelly and Martha Eves (Eaves). But I have no proof of this. this William has been a brick wall for several years now. Any suggestions or info would be most appreciated. Thanks Michelle

Hi All !! I am new to the list and also new to the Kelly clan. Just discovered a connection and hoping to find some help. To start my ggreatgrandfather Daniel L Riddle b. 1828 married Catherine Jane Kelly b. 1838 daughter of John B Kelly a wealthy lawyer who came from Scotland and settled in Moore County where he had his nephew Alexander build a fine "Kelly Home". My search has found that Daniel and Catherine had a daughter Mary Ann Riddle who went to live with her cousin Alexander after the death of her mother in 1855. Alexander bought " The Kelly Home" at auction after the death of John and the plantation grew to 6,000 acres. Mary Ann in the 1860 census is 6 years old and living with Alexander and she has personal property valued at $12,000. I am trying to find out more about Mary Ann, if anyone can help I can share some Kelly info. I have some info on the Kelly home and a copy of an old pledge of allegiance to the US card signed following the Civil War signed by Malcolm Kelly in 1865. Such a prominent family must have been well documented, so I am hoping to find what happened to Mary Ann with the help from member of the Kelly clan. Thanks for listening, Danny Riddle ddr45@msn.com

Hello everyone...I am "new" to the list, after an absence. C. O'KELLEY (b. circa 1825) m. Nancy ? (10/27/1827 - 9/17/1895). I know Nancy was born in NC and 2 of their 3 children were born in NC. Children: Martha Elon O'KELLEY, b. 1848 in NC; John F., b. 1849 in NC; William, b. 1851 in TN. The first time I find them is in White Co., AR 1860 census. Nancy and 3 children are living with a widow...no "C". I can trace her until her death. Her tombstone says "Nancy O'Kelley, wife of C. O'KELLEY". I don't believe C. O'KELLEY ever made it to AR. I have tried to locate any of them in all the 1850 census I can locate for NC and TN (since that is where their last child was born), and, of course, AR. Any of these names familiar?

In the "New World Immigrants, Vol. I" is listed three Kelley men arriving in Boston in 1765. It doesn't give the exact date nor the ship on which they were passengers. They are: John KELLEY, Richard KELLEY and Matthew KELLEY. On the same page (468) is listed as arriving in 1766 a John KILLEY (could be KELLEY). Does anyone know who they are or can connect back to them as your ancestor? Thank you, Pam Mullinax E-Mail: pmullinax@mindspring.com

I need a good address for KELLEY researcher, Terry. When she posted me earlier, she left an address of <TABBY-BUTLER@worldnet.att.net>. Does anyone recognize this name or address? Thanks. Phyllis Miller Fleming Shelbyville, IN plfleming@shelbynet.net

HI all, I thought I would try posting this again in hopes someone new will be related. Hannah Kelly born 1854 to Patrick Kelly and Anna Gair/Gain/Gairn in England. She had at least one brother William. Hannah came to us in 1874 with her husband John Garvey. I am not sure if Patrick and Anna came as well. I know William stayed in England. Any of this sound familiar to anyone??

THE KELLEY CLAN MAGAZINE PUBLISHED OCCASIONALLY BY: JAMES O. STEWART, R.F.D.NO1, BOX 102, BROWNSVILLE,PA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Number Two July 4, 1937 Free and worth it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- MISS ELIZABETH ALICE KELLEY On her sixty-sixth birthday, January 8, 1937, Miss Elizabeth Alice Kelley passed away at the Kelley Homestead near Jefferson, Penn'a. Her death was caused by bronchial trouble. She was a daughter of Freeman Kelley and Mary Ann (Sharpnack) Kelley. This Freeman Kelley was a son of Samuel Force Kelley and Alice (Carter) Kelley. Samuel Force Kelley was a son of our ancestor William Kelley, Senior. Miss Kelley is survived by the following brothers and sisters: Grant Kelley of Dormont, Pa., Mrs. Harry Victor Lucas of Uniontown, Pa., Miss Ida Mae Kelley at home and James Edward (our clan president) at home. She had been a member of the Carmichaels Presbyterian Church since the age of fifteen years and she was a lifelong worker in Sunday School and Church whereever she was located. On the afternoon of the Sunday after her death the funeral services were held in the new Presbyterian Church of Charmichaels in charge of Rev. I.N. Crooks and Rev. J.O. Miller. She was buried by the side of her parents in Laurel Point Cemetery at Carmichaels. Miss Kelly was one of the most widely known teachers in Southwestern Pennsylvania. She was a graduate of Greene Academy in Carmichaels in the class of 1888. It was probably in the winter of 1893-1894 that she taught the Heistersburg district school in Luzerne Township, Fayette County, Pa. She roomed and boarded at the home of her Uncle Levi and Levi's son Emmor was one of her pupils. On the night of the last day of school she gave an old fashioned district school exhibition. This consisted of recitations, music, dialogues, and charades. As a grand ending there were three tableauz posed by pupils in costume, while red lights burned at the front of the platform to give a spectacular effect. People for miles around came in their buggies to see the exhibition. It was during that winter and to a certan extent at the close of the preceding winter that the state began to furnish free books to the pupils. There was much discussion in the community as to the merits of the new plan. Levi said he was going to buy Emmor's books even if the rest did get free books, as he thought it taught a boy to be careful of things if he owned his own books but he would become careless of the books if they were not his own. (Levi was not entirely wrong, I know, I used to be a teacher.) Miss Kelley, however, said she liked the new way for whenever she wanted to put a pupil into a new class she could do so right then without having to wiat for the parents to buy the books. In the year 1895 she graduated from the Southwestern State Normal School at California, Pa. as validictorian of the class. Then she taught at Shady Park School in North Braddock, Pa., as Principal and teacher for ten years. Harry W. Colmery, National Commander of the American Legion, was one of her pupils there for four years. Then she was principal and teacher at Mansfield School in Carnegie, Pa., for six years. Then she was at Carmichaels for eight years, part of the time as primary teacher and part of the time as principal. Next she taught the primary room at Mather, Pa. for eleven years. She retired three years ago. ---------Notes-------- Claude E. Santee is one of this year's graduates of the Iowa Falls, High School. He was on the football team, the baseball team and the track team.

Last January the historian-editor took a trip into West Virginia in the country back of Morgantown, to hunt history. Honestly, I did not suppose any civilized nation could have such roads. My car became stuck in the mud and I had to hire a farmer to come with a mule to pull out the car. To get back to Morgantown I had to go a long way around through Kingswood. There I learned that a clan of elley's living around Kingwood and Terra Alta have a reunion each year atr Centerary Church near Brandonville. I went to this reunion Saturday, August 14. They fed me sumptuously and entertained me royally. Their president is Bruce Kelley, of Kingwood, West Va. In a long talk with their historian, Zar W. Kelley, of Cleveland, Ohio. I learned that these Kelleys are descended from John Kelley who was born in 1755 and served in the Revolutionary War. It is almost certain that this Johnwas a brother of ancestro, William Kelley, Senior. Our Reunion The great day is close at hand. On Sunday, September fifth, our clan will hold the anual reunion. Our usual place is Washington Park at Washington, Pa., but this year the reunion will be held Hewitt Presbyterian church at Rices Landing, Pa. This is a matter of sentiment for William Kelley, Senior, and his wife Elizabeth are buried in the cemetery of this church and this reunion is to be a memorial to these ancestors of the clan. We are expecting a big crowds as many will be there for their first reunion. All members of the clan are requested to bring two flowers (or two bouquets), one for William's grave and one for Elizabeth's. (Your flowers can be used for decorating church and table and then put on the graves). There will be a time at which we will meet at the graves of William and Elizabeth and lay the folwers on their graves. Many will want to decorate other graves of their relatives. Please do this before or after the time of decorating the two graves. This time is to be sacred to that one memorial act.
