Hi Donna
The Parish I am researching is Kirk Michael
I have A huge dilemma
For years I have been looking for the parents of William Cowley born Braddan
c1808 death confirmed 1854 K MICHAEL farmer at Ballakilleyclieu from 1841 onwards
Marriage to Catherine Corkill 1826 k/m marriage records state William was from Braddan
I hope this won't be an epic for you....
I have just recently started to trace Catherine' parents ancestry
Which has brought me full circle to David Cowley and Margaret Garett
I will try to be as brief as I can
All Kirk Michael unless otherwise stated
Catherine Corkill c1809 parents John Corkill c 1784 Mary Kneen born Ballaugh 1773
John Corkill 1784 to Thomas Corkill c1760 & Joney Garrett c1763
Joney's father Dollin Garrett c1733 married Ann Quirk
His father William Garrett married Joney Cojeage married 1721 Braddan
Their Son William b1726 (I think) married Isabel McBooy in 1760
Their Daughter Margaret Garrett married David Cowley 1803
Hopefully their son was William Cowley Born 1808 Braddan
Help me pleeease
I may be clutching at straws but it seems to all fit together (but i have been here before and things get blown out of the water)
Any Info at all would be appreciated
Thanks Lesley
