Elizabeth Keelan
« on: Sunday 20 October 24 17:04 BST (UK) »
Hi, I've been looking into my ancestor Elizabeth Keelan (on some records she has Ann as a middle name). She was born about 1863 in Sunderland and married James Butler. In the 1891 census, her father is living with her and he is listed as John Keelan, born in 1841 in Ireland. I've been trying to find any census records or birth registration records for Elizabeth but I can't seem to find any before her marriage. Thank you for your help! :)

Thank you! I'll try and do some research with the Keeling surname and see if I can find any census or birth records.

Back in May 2020 somebody notified an 1891 mistranscription on Ancestry saying that children's birth  certs showed mmn Keelan.  Have you found her on earlier censuses

I haven't managed to find her on earlier censuses yet. Is there a possibility that there is a different spelling of the surname that it could be under as her father John was from Ireland?
