    1. Search for Dorothy Howe Suri-5th Generation Descendant - Naomi Kelly Howe Morgan
    2. Hello Listers: On July 13, 1999 I received an e-mail from a Dorothy Howe Suri <e-mail name Dotsuri> regarding a Naomi Kelly; born February 8, 1845 in Burritt's Rapids, Ontario Canada. She indicated to me that she was a fifth generation descendant of Naomi Kelly Howe Morgan. At that time, I was unaware that Thomas & Hannah {Brown} Kelly had fifteen children, one of which was a Neome or Naomi Kelly born in Burritt's Rapids about 1845 or 1847. Subsequent, to Dorothy Suri's e-mail I discovered the following: 1. From "Who's Where, A Guide To The Cemeteries of Rideau Township," edited by Jim Kennedy and produced by the Rideau Heritage Board of Publication, Township of Rideau, in 1980, Thomas KELLY and Hannah KELLY are listed as being buried in Christ Church Anglican Church Cemetery, Burritt's Rapids in B 10. The inscriptions on the small white vertical monument that was repaired and restored by the cemetery board in 1997 reads....."Hannah KELLY; Died 15, March, (Blank) Ae 78 years."......[This (Blank) year is unusual & basically means that the place where her death should have been engraved was quite smooth & appears as though it has never been cut! Has anyone else come across a similar situation?] On the adjacent side of this four-sided gravemarker is another inscription which reads......"Thomas KELLY; Died 28, April, 1891, Ae 90 years." 2. According to the 1871 Census of Ontario, Thomas KELLY's birhplace was listed as Ireland and his age as 61. His religion was listed as Church of England, Anglican and his occupation was listed as a lobourer! This 1871 Census of Ontario shows Thomas KELLY as residing in Leeds & Grenville, North District, (070) & in the Subdistrict of Oxford (E). 3.Thomas KELLY & his wife, Hannah {Brown} KELLY, are listed with their children on the 1861; 1871; & 1881 Leebee Census for Oxford-On-Rideau Township, Grenville County, Ontario, Canada as follows: (1)James KELLY; {My Great-Great Grandfather}...Born 09, September, 1838 in Burritt's Rapids, Grenville County, Ontario, Canada! (2)Susana KELLY; Born about 1841 in Upper Canada! (3)Mary KELLY; Born about 1842 in Upper Canada! (4)Sarah KELLY; Born about 1843 in Upper Canada! (5)Elizabeth KELLY; Born about 1845 in Upper Canada! (6)Neome or Naomi KELLY; Born about 1847 in Upper Canada! (7)Kezeth KELLY; Born about 1848 in Upper Canada! (8)Maria or Mariah KELLY; Born about 1851 or 1852 in Upper Canada! (9)Safia or Sofia KELLY; Born about 1851 in Upper Canada! (10)Jemimi or Jamima KELLY; Born about1853 or 1855 in Upper Canada! (11)Jerusa; Jariusa; or Jerusha KELLY; Born about 1855 or 1856 in Upper Canada! (12)Martha Kelly; Born about 1857 in Upper Canada! (13)William KELLY; Born about 1859 in Upper Canada! (14)Thomas KELLY; Born about 1859 or 1861 in Upper Canada! (15)Albert KELLY; Born about 1863 or 1866 in Ontario, Canada! My problem is that I I have misplaced Dorothy Howe Suri's e-mail address and I need to desperately contact her to advise that I have discovered a Naomi Kelly, who I believe to be the same Naomi Kelly that she is descended from. If anyone could assist me in locateing Dorothy Howe Suri <e-mail name Dotsuri> it would be greatly appreciated!
