 1864 - 1891 (27 years)
Generation: 1
| 1. | Mary Josephine Kelly was born 4 Feb 1864, Brighton, Middlesex, Massachusetts, United States; died 17 Dec 1891, Brighton, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States; was buried Abt 20 Dec 1891, Brookline, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. Other Events:
- Baptism: 21 Feb 1864, Brighton, Middlesex, Massachusetts, United States
Notes:
Birth:
It is likely that this female was baptised as Mary Joseph. A common practise in the Roman Catholic Church at that time was to use a male saint's name as the second name of a female child. For example, my grandmother was baptised as Bridget Joseph.
Mary's birth record states that both of her parents were born in Newfoundland and that James was employed as a butcher.
Prior to 1874, Brighton was part of Middlesex County, Massachusetts.
Buried:
According to Mary's great-grand niece, her initial burial was in an unknown grave in Holyhood Cemetery, but she was re-interred in the Kelly family plot at Holyhood Cemetery, Brookline, when her father, James, was buried there on July 3, 1896.
Although Mary actually died in 1891, her year of death was incorrectly inscribed on the family headstone as 1896. This was likely an error in the information given to the stone carver.
Died:
Mary's death record states that her father was born in Brighton and her mother was born in Newfoundland.
