She is my great grandmother, born February, 1867 in Mucklon, Ballyforan, via Ballenasloe. Came to Boston, Massachusetts, USA at age 15. Daughter of James Kelley and Eliza Gallagher Kelley. I have very little info about her and would love to learn more about her family. Am I in the correct parish? Thank you in advance for any help, Nancy Kawa

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    You could have a look through some of the baptism registers for Dysert (Ballyforan) available at regisers.nli.ie (http://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000633900#page/1/mode/1up)

    They are quite easy to read in comparison with others so you should be able to easily spot all the Kelly/Kelley surnames there and it might give you something further to go on

    Best wishes
