My 2nd great grandfather Thomas Kelly married Winifred Hubon in Ireland. I have found Winifred and children in Milford Massachusetts beginning in 1855 but no record of Thomas. It is believed he died in Ireland or during the voyage to America. Thomas and Winifred were the parents of Patrick born 1835- 1842. Patrick arrived in the US in 1853. In 1870 Patrick married Mary Kelly in Milford Massachusetts. Thomas was born 1837-1839 and arrived in the US 1850-1852, his naturalization papers indicate he was born in County Galway. In 1858 Thomas married Bridget Rowan in Milford Massachusetts. Mary was born 1834-1840 and arrived in the US about 1850. In 1865 she married Martin Jenkins in Milford Massachusetts. James was born 1830-1835. He arrived in the US prior to 1855. In 1865 James married Kate Wallace in Milford Massachusetts. William was born 1842-1843 and arrived in the US before 1855.

My great grandfather Patrick (son of Thomas and Winifred) married Mary Kelly in 1870 in Milford Massachusetts. Mary was the daughter of Patrick Kelly and Margaret Callan. Mary was born 1846-1851 and arrived in the US about 1867. It is believed that Margaret Kelly nee Callan died on December 24, 1887 in Co Galway, Bullaun, Ballayara.

Any information about my ancestors or suggestions of how to locate where my ancestors came from will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Alice
