Hi Nigel, if you are correct, and you probably are, then it seems as though my possibility that the Mary Q, d/o Wm Q & Elizabeth Flett could not have married. So that eliminates my theory.

With Bruce saying also that a Ewan/Evan Q was buried in Rushen in 1722, then I have acquired another Ewan/Evan in Maughold who was bd 1729... the plot thickens.

Thank you for your continued interest.... I will keep you posted.
