This is a very long shot I know but here goes.
I'm trying to trace the origin of 2 brothers Daniel and Cornelius Kelleher who travelled from Kerry to Toledo, Lucas, Ohio about 1893/4. Daniel married an Ann Kelly (also from Kerry) and they have a son Hugh born 26 Oct 1902. Daniel died 1904 and Annie married again to a Thomas Ellis. Both Ann and Daniel born 1873/4/5. I have (I think) Cornelius in 1910 & 1930 still in Toledo, working as a barber..
There are 2 such brothers travelling together - it says Kerry to Worcester 1893.
If anybody has this story in their family please help. Ann has a sister Mary Kelly b appro 1868 with her in Altoona Pa, in 1910, said emigrated 1892. I have all census details etc, its just where are they from?

A New York Passenger List - Daniel J Kelly - Born 1910 Ireland and aged 20 years. Birth location transcribed as Hastings, SSX ??? Travelling Cobh, Ireland to New York on the Stuttgart arriving 17 March 1930. Father John F Kelly, Gateshead, Durham. Aunt Mrs T Ellis, 71 Tuers Ave, Jersey City. New Jersey.
There was another Kelly listed above but doesn't seem to be a connection - passenger list would be in alphabetical order - so not unusual.

Can't put a transcription on for you because of copyright - There is a Daniel J Kelly in Hastings Sussex with a father John born 1873 Glenflesk, Kerry. (brother to Ann Kelly/Kelleher/Ellis ???)(Glenfleak Res, County Kerry as on family search site)
There is a Glenflesk Res, County Kerry - so perhaps that's where the search should go.
This is from the free 1911 index -

Hi,
Your very welcome, hope it all works out. ;)
This looks like a possibility for the Kelleher family in 1901 - except it shows Cornelius and Nora with the parents - you thought Cornelius was in the USA in 1893 ???

This is from my tree and this link is as yet unsubstantiated, There are no corroborating links of sufficient weight to establish that the Cornelius and Daniel Kelleher from my tree are the same that ended up in Toledo. We need marriage or death records that state place of birth and parents to substantiate.
This family are from Cork not Kerry, and while at least 3 sibilngs migrated to the US they landed in New England and NYC.

Thank you Beth for that clarification on the Kelleher family.
I'm giving up on the Kelleher connection for the moment as I can't seem to trace them.
But I have traced the family of Daniel's wife Anne Kelly to the Headford, Glenflesk area. Her parents were Daniel Kelly and Margaret Donoghue. They married in Glenflesk in 1866.Their 8/9 children were born in Shronederagh/(Shronedarragh,Headfort). Son John to Hastings also Edward to Worcester/Holyoke. So I am wondering if there are any of this family still in the Kerry area.
