Dear Frances, The Kelley family was well known in Wyoming County. There have been some articles written about this family in past issues of Historical Wyoming (the index can be accessed through the Wyoming County's rootsweb page). I suggest you write to the Wyoming County Historian with your questions; she can pull the Kelley File in the office. The address is: Wyoming County Historian, Mrs. Doris Bannister, 26 Linwood Avenue, Warsaw, New York 14569. Sincerely, Patricia Tharp >From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [NYWYOMIN] >Kelley Family of Middlebury, Wyoming County, NY circa 1850 Date: Tue, 10 >Jun 2003 17:01:35 EDT > >James Kelley born 1773, VT is buried in Dale Cem.
