My 4th great grandparents, Thomas Kelly and Ann Flynn were married 16 Oct 1842 in Rahan & Lynally parish.
They baptized Patrick there in 1843. Two other sons, James and John, were born in Ireland, but I can't find baptism records.
The family arrived in New York about 1850, since other children were born in Brooklyn.
I'll be in Offaly later this month and would appreciate any informaion on my ancestors.
