If the 1861 census is correct he is living in Leigh Lancashire, England with wife Winefred under the name of Kelly. They married in Leigh in 1855. She was born in Ireland and died in 1864. He remarried Mary Smith (also from Galway) in 1865 in Leigh. I cannot trace him before 1855 so I do not know when he moved to England and whether he came alone or with a family. His father John (a farmer) was deceased at the time of Michaels first marriage. Any info greatly appreciated. Marilyn
