I have a Jane Eggar/s who died in Rushen in 1720 widow of Hugh Qualtrough who died in 1716 in Arbory. jane would have been born abt 1640 as her will says she was "in her 80s"
No "Eggar/s" appear in the IGI for the whole of the British Isles, not to say there aren't any however, knowing that the index is not exhaustive.
However I would be interested to hear from anyone who has heard of this name, and can give any information on variants and perhaps origin.... I realise of course that it is more than likely not of Manx origin.
Thank you
Elizabeth
