Anyone out there know of a Richard McKneale (McNeil) who lived in Lezayre parish
near Sulby from about 1861 to 1881? The census shows him and his wife, Catherine
living in Sulby during that time frame. It also shows in 1861 that a mother-in-law, Isabel Shimmin, was also there, but not in the 1871 or 1881 census. I assume that Catherine was a Shimmin. I have not found any record of a
birth, marriage or death on this McKneale family. On the 1861 census, both Isabel and Catherine claim to have been born in Castletown and Richard was born
in Santon. So far, nothing matches. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
