Miss MARGARET S. KELLY, Second Cabin Passenger

[No Picture Provided]

Margaret S. Kelly, 34, was the oldest of ten children.  In 1889, her parents had immigrated to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States from Ireland.  The rest of her family was still in Ireland, so in spring of 1915, Margaret boarded to Lusitania to see her Irish family. 

Margaret was lost in the disaster.  Her body was recovered, #125.  Some of the possession that were recovered with Margaret and returned include her eyeglasses, a very small pocket knife, a small Irish Bible, a coin purse and a ticket stub for a deck chair on the Lusitania and a ledger that included a list of her monthly expenses.  Margaret was buried in Common Grave B.
