My source of information was Mr. Michael Wall; a local faamily historian who told me that he knew my family and filled in many holes in the work done previously by ProGenealogists that led me to Castledermot. That was thirteen years ago and Michael Kelly, born ca. 1770 has eluded me in all of that time. I am currently searching emigration of Michael's children other than the children "found" by ProGen and others. You may notice that I don't have any information on Michael except his name and his wife's name; Mary Stines, on a few of their childern birth records. The date of Michael's birth is a good guess on my part. The photo for the profile is near the site of the Kelly homested known as #5  on the Griffiths map in PL.  Also, Michael Wall mentioned when my son and I visited in 2008, that I'd have quite a few cousins in the Castledermot area after he noticed Daniel Kelly drive by as he drove us out to Plunketstown Lower. Michael Wall told us that if we went into a pub in Castledermot, we'd be related to half the people and they'd probably tell us that we owed thm money! I liked that and causes me to think I have cousins there. Michael was a truely nice man! And would it be a possibility that someone could put me in touch with any of the Kellys in the area? Thank you so much, Kevin Kelley
