Contacting the church for early records, not so much good fortune there.<br /><br />I actually only stumbled upon this line of the extended Kelly family recently, so haven't been back east since finding them. With our trip to Ireland coming up soon, I doubt I'll be seeing Lafayette for another year, at the least. It will certainly be worth the try--especially since other branches of this Kelly family either stayed in Lafayette, moved to Chicago (the other place I go regularly), or to other nearby Indiana communities.<br /><br />Somewhere, as you said, there just might be that record containing exactly the material I'm seeking.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-2468779185358246672014-08-17T11:43:08.178-07:002014-08-17T11:43:08.178-07:00I know I probably missed a few of the postings, bu...I know I probably missed a few of the postings, but did you ever find church records for this Kelly family in Lafayette, Indiana? I have had some luck in finding birth origins from marriage and some baptismal records.Lisa S.

And ...I think 12 times should be more than enough!<br /><br />And seriously, I hope somewhere a lead turns up - there is probably a record of some sort somewhere - it might be in an unexpected place though.<br /><br />Perhaps even in New Orleans.Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-11866628726619695632014-08-09T22:07:34.114-07:002014-08-09T22:07:34.114-07:00Actually, I have to be obsessive about it.
