Hello,

I have been doing some family research and have tracked a Michael Kelly who was baptised in Ballinakill on the 25th Sept 1814.  From my records he them moved to a placed called Bagnellstown before immigrating to Australia.   The parents are noted as Martin Kelly & Margaret Phelan which I have no other information other than that on them. 

I have search all records and I'm sure i have the correct Michael Kelly, but obvioulsy not 100% sure due limited records I have been able to obtain.

Michael later arrived in Australia in 1840 as an unmarried male immigrant.

Michael was my 3rd Great Grandfather and died in Bendigo, Victoria in 1873.

I'm chasing some information on Michael and if he is my 3rd Great Grandfather and then of course looking for infomation on his parents Martin & Margaret.

Hope to hear from someone soon.

Regards

Brendan Kelly

    There is a record of the marriage of Martin Kelly & Margaret Phelan in county Laois 1812 on www.rootsireland.ie/

    This is the only record of a couple of that name in any county

    The parish is BALLINAKILL RC
