The parishes were always separate and the land records are separate - in fact Patrick takes precedence in the list - originally the church for Patrick was on St Patrick's Isle on which the King had his tower and which was defended by a palisade or Piel - when the Cathedral was built it was allocated to German parish possibly on grounds that more land in German had been given to the church which could be used to provide money etc to support the Cathedral.
Until the 1750s the river Neb which was the boundary between Peel German flowed both sides of the Island - the wall around the Peel castle was built in 15th C which made access to both church and Cathedral more difficult and a chapel of ease built in Peel town (this was St Peter's chuch) which was shared between Patrick and German as there were relatively few folk in Patrick pre the growth of the mines, baptisms should be recorded under separately but it is possible that like some of the German registers they are lost but burials would be either in Peel or on St Patrick's Isle - then in early 1700s there was the start of dispute between state and chuch and access became more difficult and the Cathedral on the Island slowly fell to ruin. Bishop Wilson then built a new church for Patrick opposite the road to Knockaloe Mooar farm - later in 19th C the then bishop wanted to replace this church, then dilapidated, by a church in Glen Maye but in end built a new church adj to old church which was demolished.
