This is definitely it. It has Robert Corkill at 17 and an apprentice Blacksmith. and he was born in 1844. Lionel found that he and his wife came to the U.S. in 1966. His mother and father were married in 1939? His name was Robert as well. I would like to find out when he was born and where. My guess would be 1813-1820 as he was married in 1839. My goal is to take this back to 1700 if possible. All I was told as a kid was that I was Irish. Excuse my ignorance, but if your family came from IOM am I Manx?
