The Craine Family of Balnyhowin, German

I have some information about CRAINE ancestors from a house called Balnahowin
which was situated just behind Tynwald Hill in the parish of German. They are a
confusing lot to say the least !

Is anyone else looking at this family ? I will gladly share what info I have.

In particular I want to know about John CRAINE who died c.1750, unmarried (?)
who handed over the entire estate to his younger brother Hugh (my ancestor).
Anyone got any ideas ?
