Hi Nick,
I am a descendant on William Jellie/Jelly from Templepatrick in Antrim born circa 1816.Williams father was William Jelly and his mother was Sarah Stevenson.Quite a few of Williams siblings came to Australia.There were nine children in this family.I am writing to you as I recently purchased the death certificate in Australia of your James Jellie's wife Margaret.I have looked at many of the Jellie immigration records into Australia over the last few weeks and your James Jellie family lived in an area in Victoria not far from where my William lived at Camperdown in Victoria.I cannot see a direct link between the two families yet but I find it interesting to note that Margaret's name was on the certificate as "Margaret Stevenson Jellie" and my Williams mother's maiden name was Stevenson.I would love to compare notes on the two families.
