When your head gets some feeling back....

Have you thought to check the son (shown as brother in law in the Kelly household for 1891) David's birth cert? Might give you a further check on mother Margaret's maiden name:
David MCALEESE
1882
ref 651/2 226
New Monkland Landward
On the 1881 census, there also shows another daughter Marion:
David McLesh 48
Margaret McLesh 40
Mary McLesh 12 b Uphall
Marion McLesh 7 b. New Monkland
John Mc Mearney 16 lodger coal miner b. Ireland
Anthony Cann 44 lodger b. Ireland
Address: No 18 Meadowfield, New Monkland
Haven't been able to find Marion's birth entry so far.
