thank you for your input. I actually found a couple of living relatives who reside in IOM at present. I am going to be there early March, and staying at the house of one of those relatives. They will probably be a great source of information. One is 80 years old and has lived in the IOM all her life.

I looked for the Vanda Quayle who is searching for relatives on the message board but I couldn't find her. Is it an old message?

Cheers.
