James Michael Kelly (2 February 1808 – 18 August 1875)[1] was an Irish Repeal Association politician.[2][3]
He was educated at Trinity College, Dublin and also served on Limerick Town Council and as High Sheriff of County Limerick in 1841.[2]
In 1834, he married Frances Maria Roche, daughter of Edward Roche of Trabolgan and Kildinan and Margaret Honoria née Curtain, with whom he had at least one child: John Joseph Roche Kelly (1835–1898).[3]
Kelly was first elected MP for Limerick City at a by-election in 1844—caused by the resignation of David Roche—and held the seat until 1847 when he did not seek re-election.[2][3][4]
