Averil, Thanks for taking the time on all those,
I already had these in my database which now contains 4300 records on pre 1840 Manx Quine's. I had hoped you were working on this family yourself.
For some time I have been trying to identify the ancestors of this Maughold family and also think John was from another parish.
But all the John's of that time period with brothers whose name match have been validated to other families, so this John is a mystery I may never solve.
Also thanks to Sue
