Broughton family of Lancashire

[Will4406]

i was wondering if maybe i could get a little guidance of where to go from here as i have hit a wall.

I have been able to find my family back to my 2nd great grandfather John Broughton (born 1859 in England) who married (feb 15 1880 Habergham Eaves, Lancashire, England at the Church of the Holy Trinity) Mary Ellen Kelly (born 1861 England). They had 3 children (George born 1883 England, Frederick born 1892 Burnley Lancashire England, and Herbert Born 1897 Burnley Lancashire England).
 I have a scan of the 1916 Calgary Alberta Census to Confirm and it also shows that George emigrated with his wife Winnie in 1907 and everyone else came in 1909.
 I Believe John's father was named George and Mary Ellen's Father is named John (thru marriage info) but i have been unable to figure out how to find out any other info nor how to proceed. i have 0 money i can spend (makes this especially tough) but i could really use a guiding hand.

I hope i posted this properly and i appreciate any and all help. Maybe the tree will help tie in someone else's loose ends too!

This may well be Mary Ellen Kelly with her family in 1871 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/KZPJ-N7Y

John Kelly was a photographer

John Kelly was a photographer

That looks right as the marriage cert. confirms that John Kelly was a photographer and George Broughton was a Spinner.
