Edwin Sandford Kelsey was born 20 January 1882 in Rotherham; Eva Mona Kelsey was born 19 September 1883, also in Rotherham.

Edwin Kelsey Sr achieved some notoriety in Rotherham in the 1880s when, as Mayor and Chief Magistrate, he tried to close many of the pubs in the town by refusing to renew their licences! His son is mentioned in his (1895) obituary: “- - His eldest son, Mr. Edwin H. Kelsey, was suddenly stricken down with an illness from which he never fully recovered. - - - He had a nature that had won kindly feelings and he was highly respected in the town. Death took place several years ago at Douglas, Isle of Man, leaving a widow and small family.”

www.lawsons.ca lists burial for Edwin H. Kelsey, wife Eva and daughter Eva Mona but I have not been able to find any mention of his son. - I would be very grateful for any information re. what became of Edwin Sandford Kelsey after 1901.
