Is anyone out there a descendant of any of the people interviewed for Evans-Wentz's anthropological study of the fairy faith in Celtic Countries circa 1910 ? - Leece at Ballamodda, John Davies, medecine man from Ballasalla, George Gelling, joiner of Ballasalla, Rev. J.M. Spicer, vicar of Malew parish, Rev. Canon Kewley of Arbory, Mrs. Dinah Moore of Glen Meay, Mr. William Cashen keeper of Peel Castle, William Cain, fiddle player from Glen Helen, James Caugherty, farmer and fisherman from Kirk Patrick, Mr. T.C.

Please e-mail me if you can tell me anything about this.
