Re: William Henry Corrin
In Response To: Re: William Henry Corrin ()

Have you looked at that 1881 census entry?
It is hard to see which surnames for the family are supposed to be Cowin and which are Corrin. Eleanor Maud aged 8 is entered as sister-in-law (of the Head, William, 25) - Daugh is crossed out. - Therefore Annie's sister.

The IGI has Eleanor Maud COWIN bapt 29 Sept 1872 Saint Mathews, Douglas, dau of Henry Cowin & Alice.
Henry Corrin (sic?) & Alice BROMLEY married 15 July 1858 Braddan.

William Henry was clearly given as son of William Corrin in the 1891 census along with the other children, all b.Douglas.
