Individual Details

Bridget (Bridie) KIELY

(Feb 1906 - 3 Jul 1983)

Bridie was from Ballinamuddy in Galbally.

A Bridget Doody from Galbally, aged 21 and married, emigrated (on her own) to the United States in May 1927. As our Bridie's husband, Dick, had emigrated the year before I believe it likely that this Bridget is our Bridie. If so then it is likely that she lived with Dick's family in Galbally, after their marriage. Bridie, Dick and their family lived in Brooklyn and Bridie worked for the New York Telephone Company.

I was given a birth date for Bridie of 29 February 1906 but this cannot be correct as 1906 was not a leap year.
