Hello All, I've found my Kelly/ford connection to be more tangled that I
first thought. It seems I have a 1st cousin marriage. Or at least it looks
that way.

The only way for it to NOT be so is that there were 2 different Cora E.
Kelly's who married Frank/Charles Ford in 1889 & lived in Wabash Twp. In
some records (the birth records online) he is listed as Charles Ford, in the
census he's Frank.

I also have conflicting birthdates for Cora. She was the d/o Jonathan D.
Kelly & Elizabeth Ruth Tharp. The Jay County Indiana Cemetery Record
Transcriptions give a date of 10/24/1874. The 1900 census gives a date of
Aug 1880. Since she married in 1889 that can't be right, but how could the
census be so far off?

Frank L. Ford was the s/o George W. Ford & Martha J. Kelly. Martha Kelly
was the sister to Jonathan Kelly named above. They were children of Justice
Kelly & Rebecca Courtright.

Is ayone researching the Ford family of Adam & Jay Co., IN? thanks, Cindy
