Edward J Jelly - any info much appreciated
« on: Saturday 15 July 06 00:40 BST (UK) »
Hi

I have traced back to Edward Jervis Jelly born 1831 Frome, and just looking for any suggestions on how I can find his parents

In the 1841 census he was living with William Jelly born 1817 who would be too young to be his father? so figured could be a brother.  There is a Elizabeth Jelly living there too born 1819 so think she is too young as well

If someone can point me in the right direction on where I can look or if anyone has sources that they could look up for me much appreciated

Cheers
Tracy
