Peter, Back in 2002 I had some correspondence with Frances Wallington of Australia who descends from Robert Brew ch 5 Sep 1832 Douglas St Mathews, older brother of your Thomas. Frances Coakley was correct re parents being Thomas Brew and Isabella (Martha) Cain(e). Their children were all ch in Douglas except Isabella who was ch in Santan.
Children: Isabella (1830-)

Robert (1832-1911)

Thomas (1834-)

Catherine Ellenor (1837-)

William (1840-)

Margaret (1841-)
I have some info on the descendents of Robert. He emigrated to Australia in 1854

She said that Thomas Brew and Christian Clague were Marr: 6 May 1860, Braddon

Children: Thomas Henry (1863-1946)

Robert John (1865-1947)

Frederick William (1868-1894)

Albert (1869-1937)

Stanley Clague (1874-1957)

Ernest Caley (1876-1948)
