Canada / Re: Grace Hamilton Kelly
« on: Friday 05 August 11 07:24 BST (UK)  »
Gooday all,
       I will direct this to SRK as we are both Aussie's.
There is a lot of revelant info in these posts, [thanks to all who posted]
I suspect I spoke to your Father by phone from Queensland some months back.
 Albert was part of the Aust contingent in the Sth African war and I do have some details on that. He actually was part of the WA Mounted infranty.
 I have checked with many of the Church organization in Canada about Grace being either in Ministry or a Missionary but they all have said they have no record. May be she did marry.
I have some Photos of the family and would like more and I am happy to share.
Keep on searching!!!
      Cheers

hi bbart
      Both the names you mentioned are familiar. However Isabel Grace Robinson married Albert Edwin Kelly, but I don't have a marriage record either.
Isabel was born about 1870 and died in 1953 in Canada I guess.
         A hand written letter that I now have dates Grace in Vancouver BC in 1982.
Maybe Grace was in Vancouver at the time of her death!

  Cheers

Canada / Grace Hamilton Kelly
« on: Wednesday 15 June 11 10:23 BST (UK)  »
 :DGrace arrived in Vancouver BC with her mother and brother in 1919. Her mother Isabel and grace stayed on, while her brother Albert returned to Australia.
        Grace went on to be a minister and spent time in India as a Missionary.
As far as I can tell Grace died in Canada in the late 1980's or 90's
        I would like to have more information about her movements.
Looking forward to being contacted
     The Australian kelly ;D :D :D

Devon / Francis KELLY
« on: Wednesday 16 September 09 01:02 BST (UK)  »
Francis Kelly was born ? he married a Mary [Hammett] 1745 Morchard Bishop and had 7 kids all born at Tedburn St Mary.
 ??? I am totally stuck on this character. I have checked DFHS, IGI, A2A, OPC, Dev Rec Office.
I think his parents may have been Francis and Dorothy [Padford] m Ashreigney 1707,simply because of names link into siblings and proximity of counties.
 :P I need a magic wand
I'm on my knees

Hi Jacci,
   Thank you for the info on Peter Beveridge, your info like that of "Beans' certainly took me on a merry chase which was i believe fruitful.
   I did find Peter and Helen's children by searching SP and IGI.

Gooday Beans,
    thankyou, your suggestion was very productive.After much searching both SP and IGI and a lot of thinking I believe that this Peter is the one i was after. Also managed to trace back another 2 generations, admittedly using; i think one of your suggestions..re following family names. Until i see better i believe these are right. I have utilized a map to locate places and measured the distances to see if it would be viable to walk them etc.
Thank you Ross

Devon / Simon KELLY born 1765
« on: Thursday 16 July 09 10:23 BST (UK)  »
Help please,
    Thanks to OPC Thomas Peeke who discovered that Simon Kelly and Sarah Amery [married 1789 Doddiscombeleigh] were the parents of my Thomas Kelly b1805 in Doddiscombleigh, i am now searching for conformation that Simon Kelly was indeed born 26 4 1765 at Whitestone,Devon.
Hopefully somebody can confirm who Simon's parents were.
The closest i can get is Francis Kelly who married Mary ? [pehaps Mary Hammet in 1745] but i feel this is a little early.
