Corkill

Hi, I am trying to trace my GGGrandfather John Cork(h)ill who was born on the IOM in about 1856, his father was also called John. He married Elizabeth Reading in Barrow-in-Furness Lancashire in Febuary 1878, I have been unable to find him on the Lancashire 1871 census. He was listed on all the census's from 1881- 1901 as a Baker and Confectioner in Barrow. He had three children
John Frederick born 1879 in Barrow, Thomas George born 1880 in Barrow and Elizabeth Grisold born 1882 also in Barrow, if anyone can help me find where on the IOM John came from I would be very grateful. Many Thanks.
