Hello Elizabeth,
Have you made any progress privately since your post in 2004? What do you know about the Ancestry for your Kelly/Kelley branch? I'm looking for Lineage of my Edward Kelley. He was born abt. 1745-50 possibly in PA/USA. I don't know who his parents were. There is a family story of the Kelley's coming over from the Isle of Man. There were a Thomas Kelley and a William Kelley living in Franklin Co. PA near Edward Kelley in the first 1790 census. One of them may have been his father. Do you see any possible tie in? Edward Kelley's wife was Elizabeth Lauthers born abt. 1749 and married abt. 1767. Her father may have been Thomas Lauthers. Is this a surname found on IOM also? Thank you very much for any assistance.
Sincerely,
Ken Kelly kenkelly_98pa@live.com
