I am trying to trace my maternal great grandparents and failing dismally. The only information I have on them is on my grandmother's birth certificate. Her father is named as Michael Kelly and his occupation is shown as Cemetery Beadle. Her mother was Lucy Kelly late Boddington formerly Avery. I presume that this means that she had been married before?
My grandmother was called Margaret Theresa Kelly and she was born at home which was 64 Icknield Street on 30th June 1890. I can find no trace of them in any census, nor can I find death certificates. I presume that they/he came over from Ireland but have not been able to find any evidence that that is so.
If anyone has any ideas as to how I should dig further I would be really grateful.
