I am new to the list, I look forward working and learning here. I will give a short history on my kelley family. I am Liam J. Kelley 1939- b. New Haven County, CT USA Father George F. Kelley 2/15/1907 b. Hartford County, CT USA d 12/31/1997 New Haven County USA G Father Thomas Kelly 1/29/1880 b. County Longford, Granard area Ireland Emigrated Derby CT. USA 1883 d7/15/1956 New Haven County USA GG Father James Kelly no birth date Wife Ann (Tierney) Kelley Parents of eleven children. Two of the children died in Ireland, one in a fire and one drown. The rest of the family came to Derby CT. The Father James did return to Ireland in later years. He of course is the subject of my search. I understand that he returned to the farm in Longford. That was the only information I could get out of family records. all help in tracing James and his family in Ireland will be appreciated. Regards, Liam J. Kelley W4100@aol.com
