My great grandmother was Mary Kelly, she was born about 1865 (or 1867), father was Patrick Kelly. She came to the US into Boston on the SS Nestorium at the age of 18, part of the Tuk Immigration. I know she was from Derrybrien. Could these be related? Mary was married in Louisville, Kentucky in 1894. Her husband was Rodger Reynolds, who came from Gort. I think his immigration was about 1891. She was 5 years older than he. Rodger died in Kentucky in 1915.
