Title: Obituary W.J. Kelsey
Post by: carol02 on Monday 02 January 23 15:47 GMT (UK)

There is an obituary for W.J. Kelsey dated 4 May 1956,  Kensington and Chelsea.
When I tried to read it on Ancestry, it said I needed to pay an extra subscription.
I would appreciate it if  anyone on here could read it for me.

This is from another source.

          Mr. W. J. Kelsey
   In the death of Mr. William
Joseph Kelsey, 63, for many
years porter at King's Court
