Re: Robt Kelly 1861 Marown MI look up please, Donn

Thanks again, Donna. I spotted your reply as I was just about to post this message to Karen.

Hi Karen

Yes, it's the same family. I have these children from parents Robert Kelly and Jane Craine:

Elizabeth 1801
Jane 1803
Thomas 1805
Margaret 1807
Robert 1810
Catherine 1815
Anne no date found

I got the daughters' names from the 1822 will of Jane Craine's mother, Elizabeth Craine nee Caralagh / Careful (it's ready-transcribed on Brian Lawson's list )

Elizabeth b 1801 married James Gelling b 1799 of Ballacottier, Braddan, and their son John Gelling b 1837 married Esther Clagoe b 1843 in 1862. We have a photo of Elizabeth from the 1860s (she died in 1879). Do you by any chance have any photos of Margaret b 1807 or of her children ?
