Posted on: Medina Co. Oh Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Oh/Medina/10533 Surname: Kelley, Kelly, Carpenter, Blackburn ------------------------- Jean - I've been looking for 20 years for names of parents of my gr grgrandfather, Lemuel Wm. Kelley. Lemuel was born 1820 at Hamburg, NY. He married in 1844 at Strongsville, Ohio and then moved to Brunswick, Medina County where he died in 1888. He kept a daily journal. He entered on May --- 1879 "father died today". No other mention of his father or whereabouts in all the several years he kept the journal! So, I have a death date of a "Kelley"; but no given name. I would be forever grateful for anyone who can find a Kelley who died on that date. The placename "Leroy" was mentioned in some Kelley notes left by a gr Aunt many years ago. Would you be so kind as to check your cemetery inventories for me? Lyde
