Yes please :), but I could be happy with all the detail on it.  Presume not your family? Shall I pm you my address or what?

Completed Census Requests / Re: 1891 census for Bayliss of Queenhill Worcs

Did you get my email address OK?

  ...and I hope I don't disappoint you.  I can't give you anything to resolve the queries you have (or I do) and the information I hold may be exactly what you have already.  I do have transcriptions of Colonel Robert Kelly's Will along with with the wills of sons Hastings and George R A.  You have probably seen them...  Anyway, I will wait for you to contact me directly.  I am currently in France for a few months although I live in the UK and the only information I have to hand is what has been saved on my laptop.

Hi Udolpho,

You are right.  I made a mistake.  Emily Kelly is the daughter of Hastings, not his sister.  Thank you for pointing it out.  ...and yes, I am probably the Linda MD from elsewhere.  I've quite a lot of information on the Kellys, although mainly found on-line and in the British Library, and from other researchers that I've been in contact wth.  There are a lot of us out there looking at the Kellys.  Do you want to contact me directly?  I will PM my email address as we may be able to share information here.  I have a tree on Ancestry but I keep it private as the source information for some of my facts is vague.

Regards,

No problem at all Tom.  I will private message you my address - I don't mind you having it at all.  I have friends that are very cautious about what they put on-line but I'm afraid I get a little blasé at times although I hope I don't live to regret it!  Let me know when you get to send them so I can look out for the post lady ;-).

Hi Tom,

How exciting is that!!! Have private messaged you my email address and would love to see whatever you can send me.

This is the icing on the cake today because I've found evidence of a marriage in Paris for another of my relatives that I'd been searching for ages.  Their first child had been born there but I had been unable to find their wedding and it was only luck that I found a website with the details.  ...and now photos of Rose and possibly Richard!

Happy, happy regards,
Linda

Thought you might be interested to know that I found George's marriage on Ancestry.  Seems he married Emily Annie Harper, aged 24, spinster and domestic servant, at St Michael & All Saints, Willesden on 22 February 1913.  Pity they had such a short time together.  Emily went on to marry again on 18 Aug 1917 - husband was Frank Killer, Labourer, Corporal, 11th Middlesex Regiment, a bachelor aged 27.  Not found out any more about them yet but hope she went on to have a long and happy marriage.

Sorry, bit of a blip on my laptop and the message got posted before I'd finished!!!

You were right.  I had already found this information - one branch of my maternal side worked for the HEIC and lived in India.  Hastings Montague Page was the son of John Page and Emily Kelly.  Emily was the sister of my gg-grandfather Hastings Montague Kelly.  Kelly as a surname isn't the easiest in the world either!

...and if I do ever find out anymore about Rose's son I'll let you know.  Presumably he'd be a step-cousin if there is such a thing?!

Thanks for the new information - and hopefully something will lead me on to discover where Richard or his descendants are now.  You and your wife have certainly been busy tracing your family.  I've managed to go back to the 1600's on one line of mine but only because somebody following the same line had done much of the work and I'm collaborating with others on another line that we all have an interest in.  Amazing how much of a small world it can become doing this.

Hastings Fitzroy Page's family is also an interesting line in my tree and I have photos that show he was probably Anglo-Indian.  He had travelled to England from Bombay in 1920 and was an organist for some time with the BBC and also playing in theatres for the "silent movies" before he married Rose.  He continued this in the US whilst there as you will have seen from the census.  The reason I had called the child Roy/Richard is that Agnes took the child to Belfast early in 1932 (she met her next husband on the voyage) and on that manifest he was called Roy.  I do think though that as he was called Richard on the census and again when his Dad brought him back to England in October 1932 that Richard is what he probably called himself.  Frustratingly though, although I know he travelled on these two journeys from the US I have not found the journey from Belfast (or wherever in the UK) back to the US.  There is always more to find out.

Thanks again for your help.  Good luck with your research too.
