Hi,
Michele Lewsader was looking for information on Mary Kelley.
I thought I might as well join in with my MARY KELLY. I realize this is a
'shot in the dark' as I have so little to go on, but I've belonged to the
list for many months and some people have asked for help with as little as I
have, so here goes.

My Great Grandmother was MARY KELLY.
Census and death records only indicate 'Ireland'. I haven't been able to
locate a marriage record.
ORAL HISTORY of my family suggests she may have come from Antrim, Ireland.
She may have been here in the 1830's with her mother. Her mother may have
been widowed.
MARY KELLY b. abt 1818 in Ireland.
Married RICHARD GORMAN b. abt 1818 in Ireland. [Marriage date/place unknown]
KNOWN INFO [varified from civil and church records] is birth of first known
child,
MARY GORMAN, born 1848 in Cambridge,Massachusetts.
Many other children followed, including my grandmother, Kate [Catherine
Louise Gorman born 1872 in Waltham, Massachusetts.[Married Patrick[aka Parker
Walton]
Family in Waltham, Massachusetts from the 1860's on.
RICHARD GORMAN died in 1888.
MARY KELLY GORMAN died September 17, 1912 in Waltham, Massachusetts.
As I said, this is all I have, no names of parents, no siblings [KELLY] show
up as Godparents for the children.
Just hoping someone may have a connection or lead to how to glean more
information.
Thanks. Lyn Walton
