Mary
Thank you so much for looking those two Kellys up; it looks like John Kelly's parents were Thomas and Isabella Moore; we'll now have to wait until Marg comes back from holiday to see if she can add to the story.
The other Kelly was my gt granfather Bell's first wife who died in 1876; I always thought her parents were Thomas and Elizabeth from Laxey, but recently found Elizabeth's will which mentions her daughter Ann married a Topliss.
Once again, thank you
