      Transcription of text in document

      Abridged text is: Elizabeth Kelly and James Cox went from Scotland to England with James' sister Ellen (corrected) Cox Thompson and her husband Tom. James and Tom went to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and later James moved to Connecticut. James initially sold insurance, but later opened a store-- first on State St/Elm then State St/Olive, both in New Haven, CT. Elizabeth Kelly had a sister Julia (Heron?) who had two daughters-- Lizzie Cooks and Marie Van Orden. Marie had a daughter Evelyn Walsted of New Jersey.
