On Sept. 28, 1862, James G.

Charles W. E. Welty, who went in as orderly and was mustered out as captain. Mr. Kelly was mustered in at Pittsburgh. He took part in the engagement at Winchester, and in all the battles in the Shenandoah Valley campaign, Averill's great raid, and thirty important battles and skirmishes. Of the original command, but thirty-one men survived to the close of the war.
Upon his return to his native state after his discharge from the army Mr. Kelly was engaged as a boatman for a short time, but he then devoted his time to farming, in which he met with prosperity. He lived on a farm in Bethel township, which he owned and operated from 1886.
