Roger Kelly and Catherine Ann Wood (early 1900s) - Mary Josephine Kelly (1899)

[Tweetybird21]

Im new here so testing the waters so to speak! Trying to find some information on my Great grandmother Mary Josephine Kelly from Kellystown and her parents however I've come stuck and would appreciate any help!

Mary Josephine Kelly born Kellystown, Co. Dublin July 1899
 - father Roger Kelly - Mother Catherine Ann Wood
married
Peter Donnelly 1904 - Dublin - Father Thomas Donnelly -Mother Sarah Murphy

Children:
Thomas, Myra and Nuala.

 MJ Kelly died very young from a head injury which led to the family being split up so its been difficult to find out anything about her parents. I also cant find them in the 1901 or 1911 census.
 
Any help you can suggest for finding out more about the parents would be gratefully received

Oh you're good, thank you! 

I hadn't thought she might have been a Kate! But very strange there's no Mary Josephine.

Mary Josephine Kelly born Kellystown, Co. Dublin July 1899
 - father Roger Kelly - Mother Catherine Ann Wood
married
Peter Donnelly 1904 - Dublin - Father Thomas Donnelly -Mother Sarah Murphy

There seems to be a mistake here - if she was born in 1899, she can't have married in 1904.

Sorry, I should have been more clear!

Peter Donnelly (1904-1966) married Mary Josephine Kelly (1899-1934) in 1924, in South Dublin.
