Christian of Onchan,Douglas

Jane Lawson b1777, daughter of William Lawson and Jane Christian, married John Alexander. John and Jane Alexander were my Gtx4 Grandparents.
Trying to go a bit further back on Jane Christians side I have found the Wills on Brian Lawsons site invaluable. Jane was born 1843 and her parents were Thomas and Ann Christian, Looking at IGI I believe Thomas was born 21/8/1720, son of John Christian and Ann Lewn who married 1719. Has anyone done any research on this line? Looking at IGI again it appears that Thomas was born 1674 and Ann 1696? Also appears that John Christian 1674 was the son of Thomas Christian and Katherine Lewry (Lewry is not a name I have come across before)? IGI has a marriage of a Thomas Christian and a Catherine Lowey or Lowey 1668 Onchan - maybe same Katherine/Catherine?
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
