Looking for family or information in Ireland on Morganand Sarah/Sadie Kelly (maiden name Kelly, also), my 2x great grandparents. Mary Kelly, my great grandmother, wastheir daughter.I cant find any specific birth or linked marriage recordson Morgan or Sarah. Mary was born 12/23/1855, baptismal record shows Killegney,and emigrated to America about 1880 and married Francis/Frank Doyle (emigrated from Wexford, mother Mary Maloney, father Thomas Doyle). I know that Mary was very good friends with Mary Maloney (also from Wexford) who was my greatgrandfather, Frank Doyles, cousin. Thanks for any assistance you may have! Mary

Dear Mrsm50: 

Thank you for your post to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.  I see the reference to your Mary Kelly baptismrecord on the NLI website as the Killegney parish registers are located there.  Here is the link:  https://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000634042#page/12/mode/1up     You might take a look through these registers as there may be further information about this family such as other siblings.  I noted that the sponsors were Mick Furlong and Mary Furlong and it is possible that these could be relations to the family.  Have you checked this marriage register for a record for Morgan and Sarah?  If not, you can do so for free by following the above link.  If you need any further assistance, please let me know.  The very best of luck with your research. 

Kind regards,

  Jane
