Not sure about England but ordinarily I'd think that, since the father is deceased, you'd have a clear path to adopting her. Of course, since she resides in a different country, there may be immigration and citizenship issues to content with. Is there a Kenyan Consulate in England? They could probably advise you as to the legalities involved in such a situation.
