There is currently no known connection to Kelso, if you are able to provide any documents with this information I would be very interested in looking at them otherwise my research will rely on the documents which I have, also if you have an Ancestry DNA test from any family members that could potentially be a match with me that would be another option,

Amanda Robson.
