Albert Arthur Palmer 's birth cert. says he was born at Ivy Cottage, Douglas Road, Peel 19.8.1885. mother Annie Palmer - father not named. Annie went on to marry William Craig and Albert appears on the 1891 census (Peel)
with Annie and William at the age of 5. I next find him on the 1901 census by putting in the name Albert Craig and he is still living with his mother now giving her name as Hannah and it appears that William Craig has died. Albert is a 15 year old labourer and they are in Groudel Glen? Lonan. What can I check next to find him? When his mother died in 1928 she was a Mrs Annie Quine and in her will she leaves everything to her husband Fred and her daughter Doris (by Fred) and there is no mention of Albert. I have tried to find out if he died on the Island but had no luck. Any suggestions most welcome.
