great grandmother help

Hej -My mum's father was James Philip Archibald Kelly a painter & dec from C'town, born 1885. His parents were James Kelly, C'town painter and Eliza Jane nee Costain. She seems to disappear as a girl. There were 2 families with James Kelly (both painters in C'town), one married to just Jane Costain. James & Eliza Jane had 4 chn, 2 died very young, then came Laura May in 1883 & mum's dad James P A . I found a Robert Costain married to Anne Archibald Whom I thought might be E-J's parents as the babies who died were named Robert & Anne & granddad had 3rd name Archibald but this is sheer guess work on my part. I know E-J was alive when my mum (born 1915) was a child & her death could be 1927 age 77. I would dearly like to know s'thing of her life & family before she became Eliza Jane Kelly (possible marriage date 1878 D'las) Thanks for any help on E- J
