I am trying to find out more about the relatives on my husband's side of the tree. His G. Grandfather was James Kelly born 15 July 1870 Chester, Cheshire and his wife was Annie Thornley born 18 July 1879 Hyde Cheshire. I have picked James up on various census in Liverpool and Chester. He is on the 1891 census living in Hawarden Flintshire with his family. I know that his eldest child Charles was born in 1898. I cannot find a marriage for them over here so can only assume that he was married out in South Africa. He went there to the Gold Mines, I have a group photo of him. I wondered if there is any way I can trace a marriage in South Africa or for that matter James and Annies deaths which I have been told are 1926 and 1933 respectively. Any help or guidance on this would be very much appreciated. Julie

Moira, sorry to bother you again. Have tried looking into this but pardon my ignorance I don't see what you mean by sticky topics. Julie

Moira, I sent a message to the South African archives quoting the information you gave me and said could they explain how I could obtain a copy of the file and they said they couldn't do this. I could only get it by going in or paying someone to investigate it for me. Sadly I don't think I can get further on this as I cannot afford to do that and obviously living in Sussex in England cannot go in myself. Thanks for your help. Julie
