Paula, I appreciate your posting this will. I have read it before and am wondering if anyone out there can relate to Samuel Kelly listed as son but no date of birth, etc. I am looking for Samuel Kelly b. 1826, SC. This Samuel's first son was named William Elisha Kelly/ey. Samuel is my brick wall. So everytime I see Samuel Kelly it makes me hopeful. I have a Kelly cousin in the Y-DNA Program. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
