Looking for Ann Cannell's parents.
Ann Cannell married William Curphey on 20th April, 1829 in Malew Parish Church, Malew. She was under age, b. in Michael. Her parents did not sign her marr. cert but it did state that they approved. Witnesses were Thomas Cain & Robert Gell, P.C. Ann died at the birth of their last and 10th child, Margaret Curphey on 19th Sept. 1850. They lived at BALLANANK farm, Malew; BALLACHARRY, Michael and BALLACHRINK, Michael. Ann is buried in Michael w/her Cannells. Does anyone know what grave #? What grave is she next to? No inscription on stone but if I could find w/whom or where she is buried it might give me a lead. I cannot find trace of her birth cert. It could be John Cannell & Jane Cowley, Michael. Other children, Christopher, b. May 1, 1804 in Michael; John b. June 1, 1805, d. 1877 in Michael; ANN, B. APRIL 12, 1809 - bapt. St. Matthews, Douglas??????? Inform. I've been given is that a relative named Thomas was a musician and a sister, Name? was called the Manx Nightingale???? William Curphey remarried the same year to Ann Corjeag, witness to marr. Dan Kelly, plumber & H.D.M. Cannell. Who is this H D M Cannell?? They had a daughter Catherine who marr. Fred Hope, photographer; they ran the first restaurant at Port Soderick. Can anyone shed light on the Cannell's for me? A John Cannell of Cammal in Michael fits in somewhere because he appointed John Curphey of Cammal as admin. of his goods; also listed Chas. Curphey Wm. & Ann's son, John, bro. I could go on but hopefully someone can shed some light.
Some other info. Were there relatives, female marrying a CLAGUE who built "Belfasthouse" at the end of Athol Street, Douglas; a female marr. a GETLY of Ramsey
JAMES CURPHEY (son of Wm Curphey/Ann Cannell) went to Whitehaven but was left BALLAKILLEY CLUE by uncle John CURPHEY Sr. and lived there w/his son William from 1909 to 1915. Their graves are in Michael. Was Ann near them? Any info will be appreciated. Thanks
