Re: Alexander Pikeman & Clarinda (both 1771c)

Hallo Frances,The Alexander Pikeman I can find nothing about is the one that was the father of 3 children christened in Presbyterian Church Whitehaven. His first daughter was Clarinda 1801(named after his wife) and the next Sarah 1802 could be named after his sister if he was born in Braddan as she died 5 years previously. I can find no trace of his marriage or place of birth.I have searched all the I.of M. gravestone sites (about 40) and can find no mention of Alexander of Braddan there so perhaps he took the boat to Whitehaven. For this reason I hoped to find a descendent who may know something of this. Maybe from Wm. Caine and Sarah's children. One of the names you tell me now would be Quiggin. Thanks again
