Ancestry does have images of Manchester Cathedral marriages but the images of 1858 are only for January! |

A tree on Ancestry has his parents as Peter Kelly and Ann O'Brien but has a different 1841 census attached - in that census Peter snr is a Weaver and Peter jnr is shown as born in Lancashire. |

John from the 1871 in 1861 - think Lydia would be too old to be the mother of either of these John's although they are both shown as sons: |

1881 gives POB as Devonshire, Portsmouth - Portsmouth is in Hampshire not Devon, though. |

I am trying to find a way to trace my ancestor, but his birth is registered as 'born at sea'. How can I get past this stumbling block? He is of Irish birth. |
