Re: Bannan/Radcliffe
In Response To: Re: Bannan/Radcliffe ()

Hi Donna,

We had problems with this one, because there were two possible Ann Jane Radcliffes with fathers John R. who could have married Robert Bannan.

One was Ann Jane bapt Andreas 29 Sept.1839 daur of John Radcliffe & Ann Skelley (Belfast family) whom, on probabilities, we decided was the one who married James MORRISON. James Morrison, laborer, father John Morrison Farmer, and Ann Radcliffe, father John Radcliffe farmer, married 12 Dec 1863. Both Ann & James from Andreas.

The other Ann Jane was bapt 11 July 1839 Andreas, daur of John Radcliffe & his first wife Catharine CORLETT, whom we think married Robert Bannan.

Her father was John Radcliffe 1817-1898, mason & fisherman, married [1] 1837 Catherine CORLETT, [2] 1864 Ann Jane KISSACK of Maughold.

John was son of John Radcliffe 1790-1863, Ballavastyn, marr.1816 Elizabeth KNEALE.
This John R. was eldest surviving son of William Radcliffe b.1763 married 4 Oct.1788 Jane SAYLE als KAIGHEN 1747-1836.

This is one of the lines descending from John Radcliffe d.1701 & his wife Margaret CANNELL who died as Margaret KNEAL 22 Dec.1723, and who were not included in Constance Radcliffe's Andreas families or charts, although many of their descendants were, and some were given to other Radcliffe families.

This is the census which put Ann Jane marr. Robert Bannan in the family of John R. & Cath Corlett:
Andreas 1861 census Ballavastin
