Kelly or Kelley
1. Kelly, George b. 3-9-1794 Amherst Co., VA, d. 2-1878 Floyd Co., VA, s/o James &
Washington Elizabeth (Sledd) Kelly.
Death Record: COD: not given. Age: 84y. Parents: John & Elizabeth, b.
Stokes Co., NC.
Hi, Barb,
Some corrections and additional information:
George Washington Kelley's parents were: James (not John) Kelley and
Elizabeth Sledd. This information is from the record of George W.
Kelley's marriage to Nancy Divers Greer. James Kelley and Elizabeth
Sledd were married 6 November 1787 in Amherst County VA.
George Washington Kelley is my 3rd-great grandfather. He was born 9
March 1794 in Amherst County, VA (not in Stokes County NC). I have a
copy of the eulogy printed in a Primitive Baptist newsletter that has the
incorrect information about George being born in Stokes County NC. I
started proving/disproving information in that eulogy in 1976.
Land records show that the family moved from Amherst Co VA to
Stokes Co NC in 1798, four years after George was born.
I know of few descendants who spell the name Kelly (without the 'e'). Of
course, many records for this family are spelled both ways. In fact,
some of George W. Kelley's records have his name spelled both Kelly
and Kelley.
I'll send more updates/corrections as I find them.
Thank you,
Paula Kelley Ward
