Thoma Lace

I am trying to trace my grandfather who was known as Thoma Lace according to my grandmother. He farmed at Andreas about 1920, He and his brother sold the farm, went to Canada and returned at some time to the island. He drowned in Ramsey harbour I was told and at some time attacked someone with a pitchfork! Nice character! He was very tall and was known as the Ramsey Giant gran said. Any info appreciated.
