Hello Kellys, I am the daughter of Martin Kelly from Coon, County Carlow the son of Michael Kelly who farmed on the family property called The Bridge. My father, a young De La Salle brother, was sent to Australia, left the order after a few years and married. Trying to trace Kellys for a family tree, as you can imagine, is very difficult - I know about most of my fathers siblings but I'm sure there are other family members still in the Carlow area who could fill in some of the gaps in the family tree.
Cheers
Theresa Lane (nee Kelly)
