I have my grandfather's (William Charles Kelly) birth certificate, born Armagh 19 November 1894, father, Michael Kelly, mother Mary Jane Cummings. I have his sister's (Sarah Jane) birth certificate, Armagh, 12th March 1899, father Michael Kelly, mother Mary Jane Boyle. I believe the Cummings is a mistake. I have found the family on the 1901 and 1911 census both minus the father. Mary Jane says she is married and head of household. In 1911 has been married for 24 years. I have been unable to find Michael. Also unable to find the marriage.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Michael Kelly’s marriage to Mary Jane Cummings was registered in Armagh October – December 1884, Volume 1, page 61. (Source LDS pilot site).

It was quite common for the husband to go off and work in Scotland or England, so I'd check the censuses in both those places for the missing Michael. If you haven't an age for him I'd assume 2 years older than Mary Jane.
