I just joined this list and thought I might introduce myself and the family I am researching. I am Gary W. Clark of Vernal UT. I have taken over the role of Family Historian from my father. While some of my family lines are very well documented, I have just started on the line of my paternal grandmother; Dorothy Zelma O'Kelly, born 1910 in Praque,Okfuskee,Oklahoma,USA. Using all of the family records that I know of, I have obtained a good deal of information about her brothers and sisters. As to her parents, all I have is the following: Father: Joseph Edward O'Kelly, born 1 Aug 1885 no place of birth or death His Father: William H. O'Kelly no dates or places His Mother: Mary Myers no dates or places Mother: Willie Claudette Berner or Burner born 27 Feb 1887 no place of birth or death Her Father: William W. Berner or Burner no dates or places Her Mother: Narcissus Vernon Walker no dates or places If any one has any leads on these lines I would be most grateful if you would share it with me. One thing I might add, if my father hadn't taken the time to jot all this down forty years ago, I would be starting with a blank page. We all need to be thankful for those before us that kept even rudimentary records in the old family bible. Gary W. Clark gary.clark@mail.uintah.k12.ut.us

Do you think it could be Edenderry? I checked the Irish Records book by Ryan and that is the closest I can find. There are three of them...One in Down, One in Offlay and two parishes in Tyrone. There is a Church of Ireland Parish in Tyrone which has records from 1841 and a Presbyterian parish(Omagh) starting in 1845. Hope this helps a little. There is a research service in NI called the Irish World Citizen Organization, 26 Market Square, Dungannon, Co. Tyrone you could contact. There are also several Historical socieites if you want the names. Let me know. Good Luck!! Maureen Maloney PS...you can also contact the various Heritage centers in each county!

THE KELLEY CLAN MAGAZINE Published Occasionally by: James O. Stewart, R.D. No. 1 Box 102, Brownsville, Pa. NUMBER Three August 25, 1937. Free and worth it. Miss Harriet Emma Kelley Miss Harriet Emma Kelley died at 5 in the evening of January 19th, 1937 at her home near Halleck, West Va. Death was caused by cancer of the stomach. She was born August 24, 1865, one of the five children of William Kelley and Martha J. (Smith) Kelley. This William Kelley was one of the twelve children of Freeman Kelley and Mary (Ailes) Kelley. This Freeman Kelley was a son of our ancestor, William Kelley, Senior. Miss Kelley's only close surviving relative is a niece. Mrs. Mary Clem Boyd, of Ridgeville, West Va. Miss Kelley's life was one of self sacrifice. At the same she waited on her paralyzed father and on her blind aunt Minerva Kelley until their deaths. She took care of two brothers, Marion and John, and of one sister, Minnie, in their last days. She also raised a niece and a grandniece. The historian remembers with gratitude how she helped him by giving information for the history. She was buried in the cemetery at Halleck. Isaac W. Kelley Isaac Wolverton Kelley died at his home in Washington, Pa., Tuesday, July 13, 1937. He was born October 20, 1870 in Amity. He got his grade education at Hazel Green school and then went for two summers to summer school in Amity to Mary Miller. He had been a farmer most of his life. He had artistic ability and his hobby was making pictures. He leaves his wife, Mrs. Minnie Viola (Bristor) Kelley. Two of his nine children died in infancy. Surviving are the following:- Mrs. Thomas Chadwick, Dunn Station; George Talmadge Kelley, Masontown; Guy Merle Kelley, Washington; Mrs. Lou M. Conklin, R.F.D. No.2, Sycamore; Mrs. Herbert Clayton Bridges, Cleveland, Ohio; Mrs. Clarence Fremont Chips, Washington; Mrs. Carl Imas Grimm, Washington. He leaves five brothers: James Cephas Kelley, R.F.D. Marianna; Joseph Y. Kelley, R.F.D. No. 3, Conneaut, Ohio; William Wallace Kelley, R.F.D. No. 2, Conneaut, Ohio; George G.C. Kelley,,, Washington; and Charles Freeman Kelley, Grays Landing. There are several grandchildren. On the Friday after his death brief services were held at the home with further services in the Amity M.E.Church. He was buried in the Amity Cemetery. Mr. Kelley was one of eight sons of William Kelley and Nancy M. (Sharp) Kelley. This William Kelley was a son of Samuel Force Kelley and Alice (Carter) Kelley. Samuel Force Kelley was a son of our ancestor William Kelley, Senior. UP IN WEST VA. 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 Kingwood. There I learned that a clan of Kelleys living around Kingwood and Terra Alta have a reunion each year at Centenary church near Brondonville. 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 John was a brother of our ancestor, William Kelley, Senior. OUR REUNION the great day is close at hand. On Sunday, September fifth, our clan will hold the annual reunion. Our usual place in Washington Park at Washington, Pa., but this year the reunion will be held at the 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 crowd 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 flowers 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. If possible, we are all supposed to be at Sunday School and preaching. (Be sure to study the Sunday School lesson). Here is the program for the day:-- 10 A.M. Sunday School 11 A.M. Preaching service. Sermon by Rev. Adam R. Rush 12:30 P.M. Dinner in basement of church. 1:30 P.M. Decoration of graves of William and Elizabeth, 2:00 P.M. Memorial program in the church. The dinner will be the usual clan dinner. Bring your share. Also bring cups and silverware. Tablecloths, napkins, plates, ice cream and coffee will be furnished. The members of the following committees are expected to be there early. Music Committee: Mrs. Bernice Bowser, Carmichaels, R.F.D. 1. Mrs. Sarah Phillips, Carmichaels, R.F.D.1. Mrs. Earl Kelley, Carmichaels. Grounds Committee: George T. Kelley, Masontown. Joseph Kelley, Washington. Orville Christopher, Rices Landing. Winnett Kelley, Canonsburg. Ushers: Mrs. Joseph Kelley, Washington Miss Mary Kelley, Brownsville. Mrs. Emma Crile, Washington. Mrs. Steve Fisher, Grays Landing. Table Committee: Mrs. Louise Kelley, Brownsville, Chairman. Mrs. J.E. Kelley, Jefferson, R.F.D. Mrs. Howard Kelley, Martins Ferry, Ohio. Mrs. Samuel Grimm, Carmichaels. This will sound impolite but it must be told. The seating capacity of the church basement is limited so be cautious about bringing guests who are not members of the clan. enclosed herewith are the get-acquainted tags which you are to wear. You furnish the string or ribbon. If you cannot come to the reunion, wear the tag at your noon meal that day and think to yourself that we are wishing you could be with us. Emmor Kelley and James Edward Kelley and Rev. Adam R. Rush have contributed money to pay postage on these magazines.
