The Kellys Of Kingsclear

The Kellys of Kingsclear follows the Kelly family from Colonial New Jersey to the shores of the St. John River in New Brunswick, Canada, after the American Revolution. John Kelly chose to support the British in the American War of Independence, and this is the story of the consequences of his decision. This comprehensive study of the Kelly family in America and Canada is a documentary compilation of material gathered from dozens of published sources and archives. Numerous family anecdotes and photographs are included. By following the history of this one family, any reader interested in Colonial America or Canada or the Loyalist position in the American Revolution should come away with a clear understanding of what it was like to live in this period and of the legacy that follows a family because of a decision made by one man caught up in a conflict that would change world history.
