Portrait and Biographical Album of
Huron County, Michigan
Pub. Chapman Brothers, Chicago, 1884

           [380]

           JEREMIAH KELLY, farmer, section 32, Dwight Township, is the son
        of JOHN and CATHERINE (COUGHLIN) KELLY, and was born Dec. 1845, in
        Ireland, which was also the native land of his parents.
           MR. KELLY emigrated to the United States in 1855, and passed 15
        years in the cities of New York and Brooklyn and in New Jersey,
        operating part of the time as a molder.
           In 1867 he came to Huron County and was engaged a little less
        than five years in a foundry at Port Austin. In the fall of 1871
        he returned to Jersey City, whence, after two years, he went to
        Susquehanna, Pa., where he remained between two and three years.
        He returned to Port Austin, and in the spring of 1877 he purchased
        and took possession of 120 acres of land in Dwight Township, on
        which he has since resided, and of which he has improved one-third.
           MR. KELLY is independent in political opinions. He has served
        his township in the capacity of School Director.
           He was married July 4, 1872, in Detroit, to MARTHA HOUSER. They
        have had four children.  MARY died when three months old; JOHN,
        CATHERINE and JENNY are still living.  MRS. KELLY is a native of
        Canada, and was born Oct. 1, 1858, near Bayfield, Canada. She came
        in early life to Huron County, Mich.
