We aren't supposed to put names of the living on this site, so now that we've asked for them the forename needs to be removed.(sorry)..Could you just list them as J. Kelly, etc.? Just use the modify button to go in and change this... You may keep the acheson information as is...
I'll see about find the latter in the 1911 for you...


The only thing we can tell you is that the city was likely Saskatoon, and there are many listings for Kelly here....http://findaperson.canada411.ca/
One with a forename you mentioned, many with the initial...so a letter to a few may or may not turn up something

P.S. are you looking to say "and " with the @ symbol as that symbol is short for "at"...
The amphersand is this symbol  "&" for and...    J.J.

Have checked the transcribed listings, but no Daniel/Dan, as yet, but not all areas are completed...

Someone else may still be able to find the couple for you
all the best,

Okay these folks are definitely on my husband's family tree

Daniel ACHESON son of Edward ACHESON was born about 1882 married Mary Ann HENRY on 03 Nov 1903 in Ballymoney, Co. Antrim, Ireland.

They had 8 children that I know of and immigrated to Canada.  They did not immigrate all at the same time, but all ended up in Alberta, Canada. 
John       Born               Oct 23, 1905
Archie  probably Archibald    May 25, 1907
 Daniel   April 17, 1909 born in Ballymena, County Antrim, Northern Ireland
Peggy       possibly Margaret?            Jan. 25, 1911
 Billy          Probably William               Jan. 1, 1913
Edward (Ned)    April 7, xx
 Tommy  probably Thomas                 Feb. 29, xxx
 Hugh                    Sept. 9, xxx
  Mary                    May 19, xxx

John Acheson DOB 23 Oct 1905 arrived in Canada first
Daniel Acheson DOB 17 April 1909 arrived next,  one year after John on 19 May 1928

The most of the rest of the family  arrived in Quebec on May 4, 1929.  They sailed on the S.S.  Montroyal. Missing from this sailing were Achibald and Peggy.  Perhaps Peggy travelled seperately or stayed in Ireland as she was 18 years old.  Archie would have been 22, so maybe he stayed behind?

Daniel   ACHESON jr. April 17, 1909 born in Ballymena, County Antrim, Northern Ireland married Isabella MacKINNON (born 23 July 1905 in Barra Inverness Scotland)  in Alberta date TBA.  They both died in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Daniel ACHESON and Isabella MacKINNON ACHESON had 5 children in Edmonton.
