Notes
General:
It would appear that Mary Ann had an illegitimate child in 1881, Charlotte. It is possible the father's name was John Clark, as this is the name that Charlotte gave on her marriage certificate as her own and her father. Later that year, 1881, Mary Ann married a widower, William Best, who was 40 years old at the time of the marriage and Mary Ann was 19. William's first wife, Virtue Williams had died in South Australia in about 1867.
Mary Ann had 11 children under the name of Best, but the father's name was never recorded on any of the births, so I suspect that the marriage to William Best may have been to legitimise her previous issue and that William may not have stayed around for long as Mary Ann's next child was born in 1884 with no father named.
I have found an obituary for Edward Kelly which states he arrived in Nhill in 1884 so it is possible that Edward Kelly was the father of most or all of these children. William Best seems to have died in Mt Gambier in 1912, however, Mary Ann married her second husband, Edward Kelly (appears as Edward George Wooley Kelly) at Bordertown, SA in 1910.
Children from Ada May down were baptised at Nhill with the surname of Kelly and the fathers name was given as Gustavus Adolphus William James Herbert Edward Kelly, or Edward Kelly. This would seem to prove that Edward Kelly was the biological father of the 11 children after Charlotte.

Notes
General:
The descendants were told her name was Charlotte Kelly. Marriage certificate states her name as Charlotte Clark and her parents as John Clark and Mary Cook her husband's death certificate also has her named as Charlotte Clark. Her daughter Mary O'Connor was the informant on Charlotte's death certificate and gives Charlottes parent's names as Edward Kelly and Mary Cook.
Charlotte was born in October 1881 and in November 1881 her mother aged 19 years, married a 40 year old widower named William Best. It would appear that this marriage was short lived. In 1884 Charlotte's mother had the next of her additional 11 children. All of those children were registered at birth with the surname of Best, however the fathers name was always listed as unknown. William Best died in South Australia in 1912 and Charlotte's mother married Edward Kelly in 1910 in Bordertown, SA. On the marriages that I have found of the Best siblings, the females were married under the name Best, but the males all married under the name of Kelly and all the deaths that I have found of the Best siblings have died with the surname of Kelly and with Edward Kelly named as their father.
I have found an obituary for Edward Kelly which states he arrived in Nhill in 1884 so it is possible that Edward Kelly was the father of Charlottes 11 siblings.
