Manx Genealogy

Willie "the tailor"

My great-grandfather was known as Willie,"the tailor". My grandfather was his son (John Kelly). I have met some of the Kelly relatives upon my visits to the Isle of Man but I would like to hear from more of them. John left the Isle of Man, married a girl in Liverpool, England, then sailed for Canada. He settled in the barren province of Saskatchewan before it was a province. John had 4 children - 3 girls and a boy. All the children are now deceased. John never returned to the Isle of Man until just before his death. I do not know exactly what year he returned to his home country but he passed away in March 1949. He had not been home from his vacation that long. I would be very interested in corresponding to any relatives that have the same great-grandfather as me. My mother was Edna Louise Kelly.
