hi i am currently researching my family tree and have found my gt grandfather mark Parkinson Cleator b 1880 in German IOM his family was from Castletown/ Onchan I understand his father to be john Wesley Cleator b 1837 Castletown d 1866 Cheshire and his mother Eleanor ann. Cannell b 1841 Onchan he had several siblings
John sw Cleator 1860
William Henry duke b 1863
Emily m e Cleator 1865
Frederick r c Cleator 1867
Elizabeth m Cleator 1874
Johns Wesley’s parents were john 1802 Jurby and Margaret 1811 Arbory married 1829 Castletown
They had Frances c Cleator 1833
John Wesley 1837
Mary ann. 1840
Susanna t 1842
Frederick b c Cleator 1850 all born Castletown except Frederick who was born Ramsey
I think john (b 1802) parents were john b 1774 and Margaret Cowle married 1795 Jurby
And his parents were john and Bahee Killip m 1774
Obviously some of this needs confirmation and essentially that is what I am trying to do mark Parkinson moved to Liverpool and married my gt grandmother fanny riding who’s father incidentally was Sam Riding (ryding) who was a donkey man on the Ellan Vannin again any information on him would also be really great.
With thanks
