Kelly and McNulty, County Tyrone

DownDromore (Down)

Looking for information or direction to a source re: GGG Grandparents. Edward F. Kelly born in or near Fintona, County Tyrone and Rose McNulty born in or near Dromore, County Tyrone. Although close in Ireland re: living distance they married after arriving in the US.

Edward F. Kelly (b) May 16, 1834, Fintona, Tyrone; parents were Michael Kelly and Mary McNulty. He had 4-siblings, Cornelius, John, Jane and sister - name unknown. Left Ireland to New York US 1856.

Rose McNulty (b) May 5, 1835, Dromore, Tyrone; parents unknown. Had siblings, one sister lived in New York US. Rose left Ireland 1848 for the US. Believe her mother's maiden name was Gallagher.

Ed Kelly and Rose McNulty married in New York April 30, 1859.

Thanks

Hi Cy,

There is no exact match for Edward Kelly born 1834 in Tyrone; closest match is 1835

Fintona is not in the list of parishes 

There are 4 baptisms of McNultys born 1835 in Tyrone: Mary Hugh John & Susanne

There is a record for Rose 1837 (the parish wasn't Dromore Civil or Dromore Registrar's District but may have been Dromore RC which wasn't in the list of Tyrone parishes)

On rootsireland you need to purchase credit to get the full record but they should have fahtre's name & the parish

Col
