Good find Vicci, looks like the birth and death are correct.
If you get the death cert it might be useful, in case the informant was a relative. With luck it will be a spouse or child.

Hi Vicci
Thanks for the information,is there any way I can find anything more about the time William was in the Navy ,and when did he leave

JAN
I think the date of birth must be correct but on the 1901 census he is 3 years old that is why I had the date as 1898.
Thank you for finding when he died I hope to find out more about him as my cousins and I know nothing about his life,but do not know where to look ,any ideas please.

Thanks everyone
Sheila

Please can anyone help.
You found for me that my uncle William Richard Kelly married Florence Alice Gaydon Gaytten b 1892 South Molton,I have now found that they divorced and that she died 1970 at Newton Abbot Devon ,is there anyway of finding the address she was living at or was she just visiting and also if Mrs Gertrude Sercombe was at the same address.
Thank you
Sheila

brummiejan Report 2 Mar 2014 20:04

Sheila, as far as I know the only way to find the address is to purchase the death cert. You can then check the electoral register for the address to see who else of voting age was living there (the voting age dropped from 21 to 18 in 1970 I think).

Electoral registers are normally kept at the nearest main library and have to be checked in person, or the staff may do so if you request it - there may be a charge.

Thanks Jan,
I will ask my friend who lives down in Devon if she could go to the library in Newton Abbott for me or wait until I go down in November and go to the street where I think she lived ,just can`t remember the name.

the BT phone book has
Mrs F A Kelly
1963 at 19 Powderham Rd Newton Abbot

1971 & 1975
at 8 Fifth Ave South Ringswell PArk Exeter
(but this does not fit in with you saying she died in 1970)
( edit - there was a Florence Amy Kelly in Exeter died 1977 so maybe this is her)

Sheila Report 7 Mar 2014 17:56

Thanks Vicci,
I think the Mrs F A Kelly in Newton Abbot could be the right person ,I can remember going with my mother in the 1950`s to visit someone in Newton Abbot but can`t remember the address or who it was except that there was a cousin there who was called Sadie ,and I have just recently found that Florence Kelly had a daughter Sadie so it seems to tie in .
I go down to Devon to visit friends in Oct/Nov so I will ask them to take me to Newton Abbot to see if that is where I went.
Thank you so much that has been a great help.
Best Wishes
Sheila

I am in need of more help.
Can anyone find who Antonia Ilona Schwartz married all I can find is Hayklan or Bernard Islington 1936 .
I would like his first name it could also be Bernard-hayklan.
It is not Nathaniel as I found him married to Maidie Marx ,Islington 1936.
I am wondering if it Michael,I think Raphael married Betty w Perkins.
Their father was Boris Hayklan-Bernard- Hayklon.b 1880 Russia.

Thank you

There is 2 children both showing Marx as their mother.

I have been looking at all different sites but no luck with finding Antonia that is why I wrote to you hoping you would have better luck.
Thank you for trying.

Hi everyone.
I am in need of some more help.
My grandfather Richard J Kelly/Kelley was born 1872/4 South Tawton Devon his father William Kelly b 1844, mother Mary Ann Cooper b 1850 .
1891 census gives them living at Prospect Place , South Tawton, South Zeal.
I was in Devon in Oct and found Prospect Place which a row of 4 houses and I am hoping someone would know which of those houses the family lived in .
1881 census gives their address as 16 Middle Dimson so that is no help.
Each census has a different address.
A cousin has also been looking but he hasn`t had any luck either.
Thank you
Sheila
