Alethea Jane Macon was born on 8 January 1882 in Puryears Dist, Clarke Co GA. She died in October 1977 in Brunswick, Glynn, Georgia.112 She was the author of "Four O'Kelley sons and some of their descendants, allied families" published in 1969 and again in 1970.  She received a Bachelor of Arts and Social Science degree from the University of Georgia June 21 1922. Ms Macon was a educator and was so loved that the Jane Macon Middle School in Brunswick George was named in her honor.  The DNA results of a descendent of Thomas, descendent of Charles and a descendent of Benjamin prove that these three men were not brothers but cousins.  Thomas and Charles were likely 1st, 2nd, or 3rd cousins and Benjamin was likely their 6th, 7th or 8th cousins.  Because these 3 men did not have the same mother and because Charles names his first born daughter Elizabeth Dean O'Kelley it seems likely that Elizabeth Dean was the mother of Charles but not the mother of Thomas and Benjamin.  Elizabeth Dean's husband the father of Charles may have been William Dennis O'Kelley or he may have been James O'Kelley.  I suspect the reason the name Thomas Dean runs in the line of Thomas is because his mother was likely Nancy Dean. The name of Benjamin's parents is still unknown but because names ran in the Irish families his parents could have been a different James O'Kelley and Nancy aka Anna Dean.   Alethea Jane Macon's signature and home
