Have a look at www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Contrib/manx/manxsoc/msvol06/ptour17.htm. This is John Feltham's tour of the island in 1798, courtesy of Frances Coakley's Notebook. I had always thought that Feltham had mixed up his 'Orrisdales' but you email makes me wonder. Was your Crellin John F. Crellin by any chance?
Quite intrigued by this?
