Agnes Gregg Kelly, sister to James Gregg, Jennet Gregg and Sarah Gregg McBride, was the wife of Alexander Kelly. They were ready to come to America with their family when Alexander died. The son, John had come to America to prepare a home, with the help of James Gregg. The widow and family came possibly in 1874. Agnes Kelly's death was probably April 1888(90).

I) Margaret Kelly Milton is listed in the settlement of the James Gregg estate. And, immediately following is Mary Kelly Waters. Seneca records record that Mary Ellen Waters 18 married George Korber 26, October 28th 1902 at the residence of W. E. Watters, Rev. R. J. McCready officiating. William Watters and wife, Mary Kelly Watters, lived in Scotch Valley, section 15 and section 9. They went to Canada 1902?. The Korbers 1912. May Watters Korber's obituary says she died May 1944. Her mother Mary Kelly Watters, six month previous. We find no data for Margaret, though via Kelly family "a son died young".

II) The twins Marian had black hair. She married ----- Graham, and lived in the vicinity of Atchison Kansas. Gregg's estate settlement lists many names of the Graham family. Marian was a Seven Day Adventist, and when she came to visit her twin brother, John, they argued religion far into the night. Marian died August 4, 1904.

III) John Kelly came as a young man to America to his uncle "Jimmy" Gregg to make a home for his mother and the brothers and sisters. He married, when 40, his cousin Janet Gregg, a daughter of Andrew Gregg. Janet had come with her aunt Jennet Gregg to Scotch Valley in 1875.
