Do you know the given name of Mr. Kelley, William Kelley's father, is? Where was Nancy Dunbar born? Was William Kelley born in Massachusetts, since he was in the Dracut, Massachusetts militia during the American Revoluntionary War? I have found where they say that Lydia Frazier was possibly his second wife. I have found William Kelleys in Massachusetts who were born approximately the same date.
Here some info on Sophronia Kelley, my 2nd great-grandmother.
Sophronia Kelley, the daughter of Alexander Kelley and Mary Holmes Davis, both of Vermont, was born on July 22, 1826, in Potton Township, Quebec, Lower Canada [near Troy, Vermont], and died on January 24, 1907, in Franklin, Franklin, Idaho. She married, third, as his first plural wife, on October 9, 1855, in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah, William Rufus Rogers Stowell, the son of Augustus Oliver Artemis Stowell of Connecticut and Mary Stephens Holmes of Massachusetts, who was born on September 23, 1822, in Solon, Cortland, New York, and died on May 30, 1901, in Colonia Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. They had seven children.
