I am searching for information about Patrick KELLY and Mary Ann DOLAN (1825, Galway IRE--1890, Allegheny City, Allegheny Co., PA). They were the parents of two known children: Patrick/Patsy, b. abt. 1851-52, PA, and Mary Anna, b. June 1854, PA. Have been searching for their exact dates and places of birth for over 20 years. Since Mary Ann nee Dolan Kelly and her two children resided in Huntingdon Co., per the 1860 census, and later in Allegheny Co., per 1870 and 1880 censuses I have done pretty extensive research in the Pittsburgh area and have not found baptism information for Patsy or Mary Anna. I has been suggested by a professional researcher in Pittsburgh that possibly this family lived in the Philadelphia area. So I have found a Patrick and Maria Kelly in the 1850 Germantown, Philadelphia Co., PA census. > > > > > > I have contacted the Philadelphia Diocese and been told that I need to determine what parish this family attended, and go from there.
