    3. OK Kelly line....someone please make my day and provide some information on my Kellys: Looking for the siblings, parents, ancestors of Thomas H. Kelly and his wife Maria Ryan. In the 1880 Census, they show up in Yonkers, NY. Thomas H. is 34 years old (i.e. b. ca. 1846) and Maria was 32 (1848). They have five children: George, age 11; Kittie, age 9; Alice, age 8; Frank, age 5; and, Charles, age 3. Thomas' occupation is listed as "Bartender". He was born in NY and his parents were born in Ireland. Maria was born in Canada and her parents were born in Ireland. According to family recollection, Maria's name was pronounced "Mariah". Our line comes through their son Charles. He married Mae Brennen (yes, "en"). They lived their lives in Yonkers and Charles rose to the rank of Captain in the Yonkers FD. Charles died in 1965 and Mae died in 1976. They had two children, Charles C. Kelly, b. 1923, d. 1968, and Mildred Kelly, b. 1925, d. 1969 (m. John Eremerich). Any information will make us SOOOOOOOOOO happy! Gary Skarka
