I'd like to know more about captain Thomas Kell. My Dads name is Thomas Kell.

This is my maternal great-aunt's husband's grand-father so he is only related by marriage to me. I am fascinated with how he morphed the name 'Kelly' from his parents) into "Kells'. If you know the answer, or are interested, we have an extensive family tree on myheritage.com. (Rawady Family Tree). Contact me and we can explain it to you if you prefer. I also have NZ links via the other side of the family.

This is my maternal grandmothers grandfather (her dad was his son William Thomas Kells). I am interested to find his children. Trying to trace my ancestors.
