hi! nat; i just stumbled on this site i saw your message. I too, believe john christian to be my g-g-g-g grandfather. my grandmother was may christian, her father was charles g christian, her grandfather was charles h. christian and his father's name was john who owned a fishing landing that was passed down through the family and before my granmdmohter died she made sure it was to be used as a public landing forever more. she always told me we were descendants from the isle of man. john is giving me a hard time too. may be related too.
