Hi Kelly-Paul,
   Welcome to rootschat 

   I can't see a marriage for the couple on W.A. BDM http://www.bdm.dotag.wa.gov.au/

   I have only found the birth of Charles so far
   1885 KELLY Charles Brackell, father Mark, mother Mary Jane BATT, at Upper Gasgoyne reg 26414

   The middle-name of Brackell maybe a good clue about ancestors.

   Where is the sandstone area of WA (excuse my ignorance  ), is that Upper Gasgoyne?

   And is Manilya Station in WA?  In Upper Gasgoyne?

   Do you know when and where Mark and Mary died?  Perhaps we can find an obit which tells us more about their background.

   If all else fails it would be worth buying the birth certificate for Charles Brackell KELLY as it should list where parents are born married etc

regards,
  Ros

correction : Here's what to expect on a birth cert of that year in W.A. http://www.jaunay.com/bdm.html
So it is only after 1896 that most info is given.

You need to identify the source of the information you are using please.

 "...Manilya Station ....reference to sandstone......"..Their children......cornelius b1897.... angelina. Thomas b1900....... timothy..."

I have found the death of a Thomas Kelly aged 75 (approx birth 1884) in 1959 in Gascoyne, Western Australia.

His parents are Mark and Mary J.

Please come back and give us some more clues Kelly-Paul    The more clues you give us the more useful info we can find.  There are lots of us wanting to help.

I was born and bred in WA and have no idea where the sandstone area is or where manilya station is so I imagine that others have less idea - well perhaps I am selling them short 

We are a happy bunch of family history addicts who just want to help 

regards,
   Ros
