Also, when I Search the glasnevin site,  is there a way to search without being so specific? And what I mean by that is when I do search I have to be very specific... like I have to know dates and exact spellings (even if it’s wrong:-). Thank you!!!!

First, thank you so much for helping!!  Second, any ideas why there would be such a discrepancy with the age?  At first I thought maybe it was his son but that doesn't make sense either. I know there was a difference in Ellen's age also in the census.
At least I know now about the year of his birth and marriage 1833 and 1863... going off glasnevins age). I will more than likely purchase the info off glasnevins site to see if it has any more info. Thank you!!!!!

1911 gives a few more clues, 6 children 3 living.
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Dublin/Royal_Exchange/George_s_Place/75501/
John is dead so if 1901 is correct he died some time between the censuses.
Married 30 years, but is that from the time of the census or the time of John's death.
30 years would only be c1881 so that can't be the correct Ellen.

This isn't adding up, if she is 79 in 1911 she would have married at 49, hardly had 6 children from 49 onwards.
Something isn't right.

I'm assuming that they misread 70 as 79 as I have her birthdate as 1841 and in 1901 she was 60:-)

I did take a look at the microfilms but there is so much to take in and so difficult to read:-(.   Unfortunately I just may ever know. I just have not come up with anything other than his children's baptisms:-(

They would be catholic:-). I’ve tried to locate marriage records for John and Ellen thinking that would give me parents names  but all I keep coming up with is their children and their birth records.

Galway / John Pelly Galway and Dublin.

I've been searching for a while for some more information on a John Pelly. I'm specifically looking to see if I can find his parents and or siblings names and I can't seem to come up with anything (but I am a beginner at genealogy so I'm not sure how to dig deep). So I do have some info on him. He married Ellen Sellars (sometimes sellors) who was born in 1841. They had my great grandfather Michael in 1874 (there were other children also...just have my great grandfathers info written down as of now).
Any help is greatly appreciated. If someone could just point me in the right direction that would be great!!!! 
Also, we are assuming he came from the Galway area but they did end up in Dublin eventually.

Thanks again!!!!!

Thank you so much again!!!  I never found this info when I did the research before either!!!  It's difficult with my grandfather having such a common name:-). Now I may be able to go back even a little farther having that info!!!  You guys really are so very helpful😀❤️

And if not for the age I would think there was a possibility it was him. I can't read the cause of death but I do know my grandfather had tuberculosis. Not sure if that contributed to his death or not.
