Michael Kelly is in the Pittsburgh city directory at 181 Lodi av. in 1909, 1912, and 1913.  He was a laborer in 1909 and a foreman in 1912 & 1913.  In the 1915 directory, there are various Michael Kellys, but I don't see any that are a foreman or at that address.

Hi Sandra,
I found a Mary Josephine Kelly who died in Draperstown, Magherafelt, Co Derry in 23 Sept 1921 She was 16 months so her birth was possibly 23 Sept 1919. 

I have looked for her fathers birth 25 April 1882 but coming up with blanks. 

Does it happen to list his parents anywhere?

Thanks for all your help it is always so much appreciated

They seem to have come home in 1913 or 1914 as they had the rest of there children in Draperstown, Magherafelt Starting with Teresa Maria Kelly on 2 Jan 1914

Thanks again for all your help
