Thomas Forbes Kelsall (1799 – September 1872), was an English lawyer and literary figure.
Thomas Lovell Beddoes was sent to lodge with Kelsall in at 3 Houndwell Lane, Southampton before he went up to Oxford.
He edited some of his published work, including the notable Death's Jest Book: or, The Fool's Tragedy, in 1850.
He wrote the obituary of Beddoes that appeared in the Fortnightly Review, vol.
Beddoes left all is literary remains with Kelsall 'to do as he saw fit' Kelsall's memoir of Beddoes which he published in 1851 with the posthumous works remains the most insightful we have.
