Those really take me back, I used to play up that back entry of Helston Street. Thanks very much for the memories.

Yes I have been looking for a while and know details from her marriage forward. As you say she probably came alone and its been suggested to me that she was possibly lodging with William as they were at the same address before the marriage. The Foy's who were witnesses on her marriage certificsate were probably friends she came over with and I have been in touch with someone who have these Foys in their family tree but they knew no family connection.
I have had no luck with her family in Ireland either, I'd like to know her mother and siblings names and her exact place of birth but its a long shot with lack of paperwork.
Thanks for your interest anyway.

I have her marriage certificate. Born Queens County, Ireland 1853 married William Mather in Manchester Cathedral on 6 June 1873 both residing at Upper Baxter Street, Hulme, Manchester. Fathers name Michael Kelly. Witnessed by Dinah and William Foy.
There are so many Michael and Sarah Kellys I've been unable to pin them to the same address and I have no mothers name.

Of course one of them could have been her mother whose husband was called Michael Kelly.

I'm afraid on looking at the dates and ages I don't think any could be her. She was born in Ireland in 1853 so she would only have been around 8 years old at that time - if she was in Manchester even by then.
Thanks anyway
