General Notes: Husband - Samuel Kelly

---

He passed his childhood and early youth in his native township and was married in Allegheny County. Later, however, he came to McKeesport, Westmoreland County, where he engaged in the grocery business for a time. He then returned to Green Oak, Allegheny County, where he operated a saw mill for a considerable period of time. About the year 1854 he sold the property at Green Oak and settled at Robbins Station, on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, where he built another saw mill to supply the coal mines of that region with the necessary timber and boat sidings. In 1859 he purchased a farm in Versailles township, Allegheny County, where he remained for nine years, and then purchased a farm in Rostraver township, Westmoreland County. This property consisted of one hundred and sixty-five acres, upon which stood much valuable timber. Here he established a portable saw mill and began to supply the coal mines of that region with the necessary timber. His own farm was underlaid with a considerable deposit of coal, which he mined and sold in the surrounding markets. He continued to reside on this farm until the time of his death, with the exception of a short time spent at West Newton. He was a staunch Republican in his politics.

He and his wife were the parents of eight children.
