When you say "family" -- it's ancestors you're looking for?

If so, do you have the marriage cert for William Kelly + Mary Jane Dickinson? (parents of Thomas William Borgoyne Kelly, if I'm reading that correctly)

It will give their father's names, for working backward from there.

If you don't have it, the details for ordering it can be obtained by searching here -- fast, easy, free:

Cannot spot them in 71, 81, or 91.

Any chance young Thomas might have been placed in an Industrial School at a very young age? Not finding him with his parents ... unless maybe father William went by the name Thomas!

Found 'em. Stupidly wasn't accounting for the old "Thos" trick.

I'll give you that because you probably don't have access to the census, but the FreeBMD stuff you still have to do yourself!

Too many Williams in 1861 -- need his father's name to be sure.
