In Response To: Christiansen/ Douglas ()

papermaking on the Island stopped c.1840 - obviously couldnt stand competition with eg Scotland and large industrial sized mills - I suggest you look towards Scotland if in British Isles, Canada or Sweeden

Christiansen (as opposed to Christian) would indicate a scandinavian connection

Douglas is a scots name not a Manx name (even though largest town is Douglas)
