Hi! Saw this post. Patrick H Kelley was my gg-Grandfather, his daughter Sarah Christina Kelley, my g-grandmother.
I understand he was born in Ireland. Do you know when he arrived in the US...or how he got to NM? I heard he was conscripted into the Union Army and shipped to NM. Do you have a birth or death certificate for he or wife, Felesita Fagardo? I understand he was buried at the "old Kelley place, off Gut Ache Mesa, just before Alma NM". Any info or stories would be greatly appreciated.
