Hello,
I'm sorry, but I did not do the original research on this. Rather it was another 'leap of faith' from online postings, etc. The information in this case was provided by another researcher. It may be that there was some confusion about the Joseph Kelley-Phoebe Buckman connection with Moses and Mary Spencer Kelley's line, with their son Joseph, in their database or some such thing. Sorry about this, if it doesn't prove out. It does seem to be problematic.
By the way, since you're a descendent of Moses and Mary Spencer Kelley, have you ever come across an "Edward Kelley" in your/their family history? This man, my ancestor, was born about 1735-1750. He was married to Elizabeth Lauthers, probably in PA about 1767. I don't know anything about their parentage or where they came from, when, etc. One of my distant relatives believes that there may have been a connection with the 'Isle of Man'. Other distant relatives think he is tied into the greater Moses and Mary Spencer Kelley family somehow. Do you have any leads or recommendations? Sorry about the confusion. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Ken Kelly
