He moved to Shelby county, Indiana, in 1822 and located on Blue river where he continued to reside until 1844 when he moved to Indianapolis.

Those now living are Samuel KEELY, Nancy McANALLY, Mary J. AULT, Sarah AULT, Phoebe GILCHRIST, Caroline STUBBS, Julia A. CARR, Francis BRUGH and Anthony KEELY. Mr. Keely moved with his family to Fulton county in August, 1853, and located on a farm west of town. He was a brick mason by trade and in order that he might better follow his profession he came to Rochester in 18-9 [1869 or 1889?], where he continued to reside until the angel of death called him to a higher life Wednesday evening, Dec. 30, 1891. The aged wife who was his companion for more than a half century still survives. Father Keely united with the Methodist church in 1832 and remained a consistent member until death. He was a loyal friend, an honest citizen, a genial companion and a devoted christian always active in the work of his Master, and he gladly heard the summons: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; thou has been faithful over a few things, -- will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joys of the Lord." The remains were laid at rest in the Citizens cemetery at noon Sunday. SOURCE: Fulton County Indiana Obits/Biogs - 1891-1895 by Wendell C. Tombaugh
