      Alfred Keller was most likely born in Essex Township of Stark County, Illinois the 8th child of Flory Keller and Catherine Elizabeth (Coleman) Keller. Alfred was almost certainly born in *August or September of 1847, as he is listed as being 3 at the time of the Oct. 10, 1850 census and 12 at the time of the August 1, 1860 census, but his tombstone reads 1851, which is almost certainly not correct.
