Re: Jewish relatives?
In Response To: Jewish relatives? ()

No synagogues on Island but there were several Jews associated with the smuggling trade in Douglas c.1750 (there is one on record as having converted in order to marry but can't immediately find ref though think it was in Phillip Moores manuscript letters); later on there were some involved in usual tourist trade (jewellers etc) but numbers very small - there were many German Jews at Knockaloe internment camp and several headstones are still at Kirk Patrick.
