Re: The Caley's- Maughold
In Response To: The Caley's- Maughold ()

I couldn't find father John Caley in 1851, but found the others which explains why.
Still in Port e Vullyn, Maughold:
Issabella Caley 37 Hd, Mar, Sailor's wife
John Caley 8
Paul Caley 2
William Caley 5 Mo
Issabella Caley 16 employed at home
Ellinor Caley 12 employed at home
Cathrine Caley 10 scholar
Esther Caley 5
All b. Maughold.

I was using transcripts for the 1841 and 1861 censuses and think the "tailor" might have been mistranscribed.

Maughold burials have John CALEY aged 67 Port y Vullin, Maughold buried Jun 30 1872.

So two very different ages for him. In 1871 he was aged 66, which agrees with the burial date. Still in Port e Vullan, retired mariner, living on his own.

This looks like John Ned Caley bapt 24 Feb.1805 Maughold, son of one of the earlier John Caley/Isabella Corkill couples!
