See the “GEE” Genealogy on www.georgiapioneers.com under Genealogies for the parents of Nancy Ella Gee. I updated this to add the 1880 Census proof.

The marriage occurred in Mitchell County, and is in the court house records there for 12/20/1883 – D. W. Kelly to E. N. Gee. This is where the bride resided.

Darling Wade Kelly was found in Decatur County, as follows:

This concludes the brickwall research. I did not find Wade Kelly’s estate in Decatur County (1850-1859). He was born 1786 in S. C. and that is where the next research trail leads.
