Trolling through the posts and have just found yours. The only John Kelly I knew was a merchant seaman who lived in Alfred Street in Dunoon with family when he was not at sea. I didn't know him well, he was more a friend of a friend and that friend is now gone. I think the house where he stayed was marked for demolition and the family he stayed with were moving away so he got a house in Cowal Place which was being built in 1969-70.

I only remember the surname of the family and that was Blackburn. As far as I know he lived alone after he moved.

I meant to ask you ,did you ever hear any mention of johns mum, can't find her death anywhere in Scotland,the reason I mentioned Helen mcgreary is that john left Helen everything he had to her in his will,which wasn't v,,ery much ,just wondered who she was.thanks for the info you have gave me.
