He is listed on 1880 census in Kaufman County, working for the railroad. Am not sure when accident took place but he was living in Dallas as a broomaker in 1900 so had to be sometime between 1880 and 1900 (I believe it was around 1895). Any info on this or any info on Peter James Kelly at all would be greatly appreciated.
