Yes, I live in NJ.  If your Bernard is the one in my family tree there would be a connection to Jersey City. If not it may be a 'distant' relation.  Karen

Yes - My family are 'Kelly's' from Ahascragh, Ballinsloe, Cloncannon area. My grandmother was Kate Kelly and her parents were Michael Kelly & Ann Leonard Kelly. That is all I know since I just started research on that part of my family. I think your family must be in some way related to mine since Ahascragh is a small village (I went there 12 years ago) However on the days I was there the church was closed and the priest on vacation so I couldn't look up records as I did on other parts of my family. I need to send to national archives to get more information. When I was there I did meet Kellys who still own a farm there. I know that my uncle sold my grandmother's part of the farm to the remaining family many years ago. My email is (*) if you want to stay in touch and I will keep you advised of anything I find,  Karen Kelly Boyce

Hi, I have a grandmother named Catherine Kelly from Ahascragh. Her parents were Michael Kelly and Ann Leonard.  I have her birth certificate. Perhaps you are related. I know that she had three brothers and two sisters. Some who came to the USA and some who stayed behind.
