    Failte from Florida

    Hi there everyone, Jim Kelley from Pensacola, Florida USA here. I have always assumed with the name Kelley that my ancestors were from Ireland. They probably were some where down the line, but I have recently traced my 6th or 7th Great Grandfather back to Kintyre, Scotland.
    I have always had a great interest in all things Gaelic, and I look forward to taling to you on the foums.

    Hello and thanks for the kind welcome from you all.
    Welcome aboard Jim!

    We lived in Pensacola/Ft Walton Beach for more than 20 years! Our last home was up in Cantonment. I worked for Network Telephone for a few years and whenever we had vendors visit us they always wanted to take us to McGuire's either for lunch or dinner and sometimes both! Not a bad thing mind you, the steaks were always great as was the Irish whiskey and the Guinness!
