I spent some time looking through newspapers last night and trying a combination of different names, but couldn’t find much more. Tried to follow the trail of the Robert Killey, the patient, but got to no where....both on census and newspapers.
I have seen mentions of a Robert Callow (who could be who was injured and your blind gg grandfather), son of William Callow and Catherine Kelly
I would be curious to look in to Robert Callow, William Callow and Catherine Kelly.
Would seem weird to have a newspaper article to have his name as Robert Callow though if he had been taken in by the Kelly family....surely they would have named him Robert Kelly in the newspaper article.
Unless, it was well known that he was adopted?
I did see an article about a court case with females named as Callow & Kelly, along the lines of them being “ladies of the night” (although that’s not what the article said...but you can probably guess!)
