Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Below is a possible record. The family lived in Ballymabin townland in Killea civil parish. Do you have any other family info? This record does match your data but I like to have more evidence to confirm that this is the correct Thomas Kelly.

Thank you for the reply.  I do not have additional information except 1873 year of emigration from Cobh, Cork (Queenstown).  Thomas Kelly worked in Cleveland, OH, married Agnes Marie Slater.  He died Mar. 1, 1901 Pittsburgh, PA, burial Calvary Cemetery, Pittsburgh, PA.  My brother, cousin and I have DNA testing results to compare with Kellys living in/near Killea Waterford.
