Said to be a numerous family

My father said and I so recorded it that: Alexr Kelly emigrated at an early day from Wales and settled at Jamestown, Va., (either he or his parents) his son James who married a Wilson settled in Westmoreland County, Va., and died in that county. I have an impression that I have heard my father speak of Alexr once living in Maryland, but am not certain.

James Y. Kelly, son of James & Susan Kelly, emigrated to Ky. about 1800. I learn that he was living in Ky. from a letter dated 25 July 1802 from Alexr D. Kelly to him: also in 1825, a letter written by one Spicer Wilson to his "Dear Nephew". So I presume Spicer Wilson married a daughter of Alexr & Elizabeth Kelly. Alexr T. Kelly writes under date 20 July 1825 to his brother James Y. Kelly, stating that they were the only two left out of a numerous family.
