I'm hunting Kelly/O'Kelly as follows; SAMUAL O'KELLY (SAMUELL O'KELLY as he signed his will, but there are some other documents signed as Kelly) was born in Ireland and married ANN(last name unknown). they had 7 children; DAVID KELLY (this is my line) & JOHN KELLY (the two oldest) born in Ireland other sons born in New Jersey are JOSEPH WILLIAM ZACIHRIA(spelling is probably wrong as it's from a copy of Samual's will) SAMUAL BENJAMIN David married a MARY CUNNINGHAM and they had 7 children, but I only know my line who is CHARLES KELLY(born b 1769 N.J.) and one brother named JOESEPH KELLY who married Sarah Smith and had 14 children. CHARLES married CORNELIA GAULTY b 1769 and they had 9 children ; MARY KELLY b 1788 near Morristown N.Y. JOESPH C. KELLY b 1791 near Morristown N.Y BENJAMIN C. KELLY b 1793 (this is my line) near Morristown N.Y THOMAS KELLY b 1795 near Morristown N.Y JOHN C. KELLY b 1796 near Morristown N.Y HANNAH KELLY b 1797 near Morristown N.Y LYDIA KELLY b 1802 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. WILLIAM C. KELLY b 1804 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. DAVID KELLY b 1804 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. CHARLES KELLY b 1809 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. STEVEN B. KELLY b 1811 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. MEHITABLE KELLY b 1816 in Kelly's Corners, Seneca county, N.Y. Benjamin moved to Seneca county Ohio about 1834 and was a soldier in the War of 1812. If all this gets confusing, you can get alot of this from WFT Vol. 1 , tree # 2846 and there is a little more info at WFT Vol. 3 , pedigree #1144. The hardest thing to find right now is if Samual came over from Ireland in the mid 1700s and there were no immigration systems as it all belonged to England and I even found there are some passenger list that came over on British Man of Wars. There were no restrictions as to the ports that they landed at, so the records of that time are very sketchy at best. Thanks in advance for any help in my search. Warren J Kelly wjkelly@usit.net
