I'm searching for information pertaining to my Great Grandparents both of which were from the IOM. My Great Grandmother was Isabel Collister/Callister. My mother, now deceased, told me that my Great Grandmother was born in Foxdale (sp) on the IOM and my Great Grandfather was Thomas Kelly born in Greha (sp). Isabell's mothers maiden name was Radcliffe and Thomas' mothers maiden name was Quayle. I was told they had at least 11 children, but I only know that names of two of the daughters - Ethel and Margaret Catherine (b 1903 in Douglas) - Margaret was my grandmother. I remember my grandmother mentioning that she had twin brothers that were handicapped who died around the age of 13.
My Grandmother married William Shimmin (b 1905 birkenhead England) abt 1928 in Douglas on IOM. They immigrated to USA in 1929 where they settled in Colorado then moved on to Marin County California. They had Three children: Joseph, Douglas and Florence. Any information pertaining to any of the families mentioned would be greatly appreciated.
