I said this was going to be a toughie.

What is the name of the brother in law on the marriage cert? Is there an occupation for either the groom or his father?

The death of James John in 1935 is probably going to be reported by his wife, so won't tell you anything new. We will keep it in reserve in case we get nowhere else. Do you think his occupation might have been interesting to know?

Barbara is trying hard, but I actually think you are up the creek without a paddle here.

Presumably this is a grandfather. Have you any relatives with any recollection of him? A sister such as Mildred or Beryl could open doors!

Let's go onwards. Do you know if Alice remarried? When and where?

Do you know when and where she died?

What happened to James John Kelly the son, born 1835. Who did he marry? Not likely to help much, but you never know.

Sorry, pal, not hopeful for you on this. I have a John Kelly in my own tree that I have never traced. Maybe its the same fella! But I guess not.

Love

Margaret

I wonder if this could be the father ??

Can I get this clear in my head?

James John Kelly married Alice Rowe in 1935 and died the same year.

He had a son of the same name.

For info:

Kelly James J Rowe Stepney 1c 438
Lee Elizabeth Smith Stepney 1c 438
Rowe Alice Kelly Stepney 1c 438
Smith Herbert Lee Stepney 1c 438

So you have the marriage cert, and the father is James Kelly, Dock labourer, deceased.

This is going to be a toughy.

I am hoping someone comes along with inspiration.

Do the witnesses give any clues?

St George in the east London is on alices and James Certificate

What town? Martha Street doesn't tell us a lot. Martha Street Glasgow, Martha Street, Norfolk, Martha Street Bristol.

More into please.

Hi was just wondering if you need more details i only have the address as 43 martha street on the wedding cert of 1935
Hope this helps
Thank you
