John McH. Kelly, son of Robert and Margaret (Hamilton) Kelly, was born Feb. 14, 1824, in Nicholas county. He made his home in Braxton county in 1850, and was married Oct. 23, 1860, to Allie V. Hamman who was born Oct. 23, 1860 at New Castle, Va., and her parents were Jacob and Amma (Ferrier) Hamman. Four children were born: Fanny F., Margaret, Sallie C., and Leonidas H. On March 9, 1863, Mr. Kelly was shot by bushwhackers while on his road as a private citizen, from Braxton to Nicholas, the dastardly deed occurring on Powells mountain. He died Nov. 27, 1873, and is interred in the Sutton cemetery.
