Re: William Frederick Shimmin (b1905)

I was just informed that William was not born on the IOM, but in Birkenhead England. Margaret Catherine Kelly was born on the IOM. They were married in Douglas, on the IOM abt 1927. Margaret's mothers maiden name was Collister. Margaret had numerous sibilings - one of her sisters was named Ethel and I was told she also had twin handicapped brothers that died around the age of 13. Ethel died abt 1975 -1980 in England. Margaret died in Nov 1990 in Marin County California. I am aware of at least one of William's siblings, a sister named Kitty whom I believe was living on the IOM. The last we heard from Kitty was in 1997 and we are not sure as to if she is still living.
