Nora J. Leahy
I have an old photograph of Nora J. LEAHY which was taken by F. B. Short of Honeoye, NY. The photograph indicates that Nora is just 10 months old at the time the photograph was taken. The name Lena is also written on the back of the photograph as if this is the person to whom the photograph was gifted originally.
Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Nora and her family:
Nora J. LEAHY was b. 16 Sept 1902 in Honeoye, NY to parents Richard G. LEAHY or LAHEY (1871-1958) and Alice Mary FLOOD (1877-1957). Nora was one of 5 children born to this couple including Nora J.; Ethel; George F.; John Leslie; and Carl E. LEAHY, all born between 1902 and 1915. Nora married William KELLY (1895-1961) and she died 29 Dec 1995 in Lima, NY.
I am hoping to get this photograph to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.
Thanks,
Shelley
