Vizards in New Orleans

My husband's mother is Celia Vizard Watson Swords. Her mother, Celia Vizard Watson, died July 21, 1931. Her parents were Anthony Vizard, Jr. and Cora Herbst. This Anthony Vizard (b. 28 Jan 1872) was president of Vizard Marine Supplies. He was a member of many local social clubs (Southern Yacht Club, etc.) and had a relative in Mobile (William Vizard).

His parents were Anthony Vizard (b. circa 1834) and Mary Kelly. Anthony Kelly and Mary Kelly had 7 children: Anthony, Cora, Thomas, Edward, Mary, George, and William. I suspect this Anthony's father may have been the Thomas Vizard (born in Ireland) that died in the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1853??

I would love to know the parents of both the older Anthony Vizard and the parents of his spouse, Mary Kelly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also, if this helps someone else, there is an Anthony Vizard tomb in St. Patrick's cemetary with these Vizards: Anthony, Mary Kelly Vizard, Thomas J., George, John, Mary, Edward, Anthony IV, Cora, & Celia.
