      Keziah was named for her aunt, Keziah Russell who married Theodore Welch, brother to her father, George Welch. Keziah Welch's branch has been elusive as I couldn't find any records for her as an adult in York Co. ME. Then I found a clue, but no documention proving she married Ira Mandeville.

      I found it in a the history of Luzerne Co. PA. "He [Ira O. Mandeville] was united in marriage in 1857 to Ellen K. daughter of George Welch, of Springdale, Me....." [History of Luzerne County, PA.,by H.C. Bradsby, 1893, Page 1147, MA - MI Surnames]

      So evidently she migrated from York Co. to the Luzerne county area with her brother, Horace Moody Welch.
