Gideon KELLEY
Margaret McCARTY

Please Note: A patrilineal descendant of our subject has been Y-DNA tested for the KELLEY/KELLY DNA Project, and he is a match for the descendants of William KELLEY (1715-1796) of Baltimore Co., MD. He is alleged to be a son of William's son, Zachariah KELLEY (1760-1782), but I find no evidence for the connection or even that Zachariah survived to marry. Gideon is, however, listed next to Joshua KELLEY, a brother of Zachariah, in the 1810 census.
