Thanks, Chris - yes Bride is the adjoining parish to Andreas, but don't know of any connection between your Lace family of Ballakilley in Bride and the ones of Ballasyr in Andreas.
In case you haven't seen it, there is a copy of Charles Lace's will on Frances Coakley's website at: http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Contrib/manx/famhist/wills/1765_cl.htm
[Archdeacon Wills 1765 No.35 Bride] "I Charles Lace of Ballakilley being ancient in age and infirm in bodily health....". This gives a lot more information about the family.
The transcriber is Joyce Oates and she says that daughter Christian b.1710 married Hugh SHIMMIN 3 Dec 1734 Bride, and had children John (1735-), Grace (1736-), Charles (1739-), Thomas (1741-), Christian (1743-) and Elizabeth (1747-).
