Yes, that was my point Mike - didn't explain that very well. I was trying to say that I thought that the one that married William Pellow was the daughter of Richard.

My cousin and I are trying to find information on EDWARD KELLY who married HONOUR PAULY on 24th Apr 1756 and then her sister ELIZABETH on 27th Oct 1767 .
We think it must be some where in Devon as that is where the family come from.
We do not have his DOB or when he died or his parents which does not help.
Please is there any way you can help.
Thank you
Sheila
