Person:Bridget Reddin (1)

She spent her younger years in Cascade and from information taken from post cards, spent time in Nebraska. She had asthma and probably went to Nebraska and later to Colorado for health reasons. Her husband, William Kelly had two sisters living in Nebraska at the time of his death. Delia and William may have met during a time of these visits. There were Reddins living in Denver but we haven't been able to make the connection. . Delia was then Twenty-five years of age when she was married. They owned a home at Five Points but around 1910 they moved to an apartment. Her husband, William Kelly was a State Food Inspector, Bailiff of West Side Criminal Court , Adjuster, and was the Court Bailiff when he died suddenly of a heart attack. Delia made several trips back to Iowa. When her mother Margaret died she stayed at the hotel in Cascade as she said she needed the steam heat. At times she was very lonely living away from her family. She wrote either a card or letter to her Mother and sister Mary saying how she missed them, especially at the holidays. She and her husband traveled to many places around the state and would mail a card to Cascade to her family. Her letters were destroyed. Charles Reddin her great nephew said husband said that his father Thomas Reddin had a large trunk that was full of letters and belongings. The farm was sold when Charles Reddin found other work. Before his mother moved to Cascade, she went through the trunk and burnt most of its contents. The only thing that was salvaged were a few pictures and post cards. From these cards I found that Thomas Reddin and George Rice visited Delia and Will. Delia and William Kelly never had children. Their address at the time of William's death was 330 East, 19th Street, Apt. #25. The had resided there for 45 years. They are buried in Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Denver, Colorado.

After Anna (Mrs. Thomas Reddin) died we found an address book with the Kelly's address. We know after looking through the postcards where she was but couldn't understand why she never kept in touch with Tom and Anna. Must have been some friction when Margaret died and her estate was settled.

Bridget (Delia) Reddin Kelly died at Denver, Colorado January 18, 1945. William Kelly died September 9, 1933 at Denver Colorado. Delia was in the St. Anthony's hospital in 1909 and Mary Reddin visited her at that time.
