Hi Peter

I have based the approx births mostly around the age given at death/burial. The baptisms of the children born in Ireland haven’t been found and probably don’t exist but you can see these children on the Manx records and there are clues connecting them to Michael & Sarah and to each other. The clues are there to build a decent picture of this family.

I’m not sure about James. On one of Thomas’ records it mentions that in 1835 he had a brother James. It would seem odd to me to name a young child who was also transported so I think James was in the Isle of Man. James Lynch the Irish born fireman on the Isle of Man could be this brother.

I have not included Jeffery as when I checked the baptism record image the surname was Lynch not Lynchey as someone said some years ago, so not sure about him. All I can find is his 1828 marriage and the 1830 baptism. Here is the baptism link:-
