Notes:

Said to be the son of Rev. Joel Parish KELLEY and Deborah Ansofee FUNDERBURK. Other children bonr to Joel and Deborah were: Cornelius, Baron DeKalb, Emily Frances, Nancy Jane, William Wilson, John Van, and Rhoda.

On his "Descendants of William C. KELLY" website, Phil Sulser writes that:

Joel Parrish Kelley was born in North Carolina Oct. 3, 1825. He, along with his parents, brother John (Jack) and sisters Jennie and Malinda, moved to Alabama in the early 1830's. The 1840 Census of Perry County, AL listed: William C. Kelley and John C. Kelley. The family then moved to the area of Farmerville, LA., Concord community just NE of there, about 1842. The 1850 Census of Union Parrish, LA listed: Joel P. Kelley age 25, Deborah Kelley age 21, Cornelius Kelley age 3, Cal Kelley age 1, Tabitha Kelley age 63, John C. Kelley age 33, Eliza Kelley age 32, and their 6 children. Also listed was Van R. Funderburk family, descended from Hans Devauld Von Der Berg and the Von Der Burg family of medieval Germany nobility. The Census of 1860 in Union Parrish still listed Joel P. Kelley and family but with four children.
Joel and Deborah Kelley lived in LA long enough for all 8 children to be born there (Farmerville area, Union Parrish) prior to the family moving to Texas. Debora's brother Van R. Funderburk and family moved to Texas with them in 1869, as did Joel's brother Jack Kelley. Jack Kelley and family left the group in route shortly after crossing the Sabine River and settled in Chambers County, TX. Joel's sisters Jennie Smith and Malinda Davis also moved to Texas. Jennie Smith and family moved elsewhere (where ?) rather than settle in Concord. Malinda Davis's husband disappeared , fate unknown. Malinda thereafter lived with relatives and is buried in Concord Cemetery. Joel and Van Funderburk bought adjoining land 12 miles North of Palestine, TX in the Concord Community, then known as Fitzgerald . Joel, a Baptist Minister, donated the land, a corner of his property, for the cemetery at the Concord Baptist Church when it was organized in 1871. He died of spinal meningitis Feb. 1872 shortly after coming to Texas and was the first person buried in Concord Cemetery. His wife Deborah, who lived another 41 years and never remarried, is buried beside him. She died March 30, 1913.
