Mary Jane Kelly

An interesting entry in the genealogical files. Parsonstown Union workhouse was erected on a seven-acre site half a mile to the east of Parsonstown.
Mary Jane Kelly claimed she had a relationship/marriage with a John Davies. Did she name her son after the father? The date of the son's birth fits the story, a tenuous but intriguing link.
