Can anyone put me in contact with living descendants of Edward Gelling of Ballacottier, the Cooil (1832-1913)? This Edward Gelling is featured in the Manx notebook Memorial Notices. He died November 22, 1913 and I believe him to have been one of eight children born to James Gelling of Braddan 1799-1878 and Elizabeth Kelly of Marown 1801-1879.

At the time of his death, Edward Gelling's survivors included:
" a son, Mr E. Webster Gelling, in London, and three daughters-Mrs Capt. Crebbin, Mrs H. Mudie Draper, and Mrs John Corkill". These names coincide with the 1871 cencus names of Clara H., Edith Julia, and, in 1881 Jane E Gelling plus the son mentioned in the IGI as Edward Webster Gelling Christened 14 Mar 1866 Braddan.

Of course I would also be interested in knowing of Edward's siblings' descendants as well. Especially those who lived in Belfast or Dublin in 1880s and 1890s. The names Kate, Bella, June, Fred and Tom may be relevant.
