When my ggreat uncle, John Kelly, died in April, 1908 his obit states that he was the
brother-in-law of Mrs. Alex. Cameron. It also states that the Cincinnati OH papers should
copy. I at first thought she could be John's wife's sister, Bridget Keating, born
c. 1863 in St. Louis, MO. since we can't seem to find her here it could be that she
was living in Cincinnati. We know that their sister, Mary Keating McGahan and husband,
John moved between Missouri, Indiana and Ohio and have children born in each of those
states. When I saw that your Alex Cameron married Katherine Kelly I began thinking that
if the obit was wrong that maybe John Kelly's sister could have married the Cameron
and that it should have said brother of...... John Kelly would have been born about 1843.
Does any of this fit in with your Cameron families?
