Thanks for both of these - a massive improvement considering how badly damaged the original is!

Hi

I am trying to find any information on a relative who moved to Australia in 1929/1930, believed to be SA or Victoria, but not certain. According to family lore she married and had at least 2 children. She was the daughter of Jeremiah Kelly and Bridget Horgan of Knockanare, but travelled to Australia as a single women and is believed to have married sometime before 1947. She reputedly briefly visited relatives Ireland in the 1940s but remained resident in Australia her whole life. Unfortunately Margaret Kelly is a common name! Church records show no middle name. Any identification of marriage or spouse greatly appreciated.

Hi folks. I seem to have reached a dead end in my family tree and wonder if there is anyone out there who can help.

I know that my Great Great Grandfather was Henry Green, who lived in Little Wolford but was born 1790 nearby in Stourton and Christened in Cherington. His parents according to baptismal records were William and Mary Green of "Stowerton". I originally believed that William Green was born in Little Wolford in 1762 to William and Mary, which would have connected me to a well documented family tree of Greens in Wolford.  However in the Wolford burial records it appears that this 1762 William died as an infant in August 1762, although this death did not appear in familysearch as the surname was not easy to decipher.

Further checking of burial records did reveal a William Green buried in 1824 in Little Wolford with a birth date (location unspecified) of 1753, and a Mary Green buried in 1827, born in 1759 (again no birth location). So this couple seem possible parents for Henry and his siblings in Cherington in the period from 1787 to 1803. However I can't seem to find a 1753 birth locally for a William Green, nor indeed a candidate marriage between a William Green and a Mary in the relevant period.

Before I call it a day does anyone have any suggestions for this couple that I may have missed.

Regards
