William Spence Kelly
I am looking for the relatives of William Spence Kelly that remain in Ireland.
I am told he was the son of Charles and Eleanore Kelly who lived in Arklow, County Wicklow.William was born 11 May 1839.He left Ireland and traveled to the U.S.During his journey from Ireland his ship "Darien" travleing toBermuda, went aground.He settled in Georgia and married Sarah Pamela Williams.They moved to Atlanta, Georgia and had one child (Charles John Kelly).
William's parents ran a school named Ballymoyl (having travled to Ireland I know this is a familiar reference so I'm not sure it is helpful).Boys would live at the school and work the farm to pay for their tuition and board.When schools were nationalized, they were assigned to the Leskenfere School in County Wexford.
My uncle visited the school some years ago (over 20 years)and at that time is was still in operation (I have some pictures).
I would like to know if anyone knows where the school is or if anyone knows any of the relatives of William.
