Dublin / Re: KELLY Mourne Road, Drimnagh
« on: Tuesday 21 August 12 00:21 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I am from Scotland, however my Kelly heritage came from Dublin, Ireland.
I don't know any of relations being named William or ‘Barney’ (Bernard) and obviously his sisters can't be the same 2 women I am talking about as they didn't have bothers by the names of William or Bernard but..........
I had a Great Aunt Josephine Kelly and a Great Aunt Sarah (but we called her Sadie) - they were sisters. My Great Grandmother was also called Sarah Kelly.
My Great Grandmother, Sarah Kelly was born somewhere like... "Donnybrook counly or connly, Dublin". Not sure as reading it from a birth certificate.
The eldest family members which I have read about is:
John Thomas Kelly (some people knew him as Jack) married Sarah Kelly on August 28th 1916. John Thomas Kelly died in 1966 - 73 years old. Sarah Kelly died before that but I have no idea when.
and older than that was my Great Great Grandfather Joseph Kelly and Great Great Grandmother Joanna Kelly, however I have no dates at all to do with them.
That is the furthest I have gotten to so far but I don't think I can go back any further as they all lived in Dublin. However, I have photo's of my Grandmother's ....either... cousins or aunties and uncles. She got the photos but has no idea who they are expect that they are related.
I said Sarah Kelly was born in Donnybrook connly/counly, Dublin but that does not mean all my other Kelly relations were born there.
I doubt we are speaking of the same Sarah Kelly but your Kelly's could be cousins or aunties/uncles of my Gran or great gran or even great great gran.
