Good morning, I am new to this list and wish to find information about two familys born in the Isle of Man, COWLEY and KESSESK or KISSACK.

On the 1871 census Thomas Cowley born 1803 Barlow Isle of Man and his wife Jane born 1805 also Isle of Man, I searched Family History site and found a marriage in 1827 in Liverpool it was only one for thomas and jane thats where i got the surname which spelling is correct not to sure.

Then i thought i would put in names and try and find birth dates:
Thomas Cowley b 1803 Ballaugh Isle of Man, parents William Cowley and Margaret Teare they where married 1793 in Ballaugh.
All I could find for Jane is Jane Kessick b 1828 Santon.

So is Barlow short for Ballaugh need to try and finfd info, as they is no certifcates before 1837 i need to reply on good will of people who give up they time to help, to which i am most grateful sandy
