these blooming underage killeys are driving me bonkers! have been at that rotten igi for ages....discounting the 1779 birth date I had..(dont know from where), for john killey.

have found a john killey b 11 june 1784 german.....this would make this john killey underage in 1804....parents james killey and ann quayle. one of witnesses ay 1804 marriage is a david quayle. sherlock, can a connection be found here with all your hidden resources?

the cath callow b 23 may 1784 maughold is the daughter of charles callow and jane kelly who married in 1769 maughold.

obviously I know this is just random searching and not any kind of shred of evidence, but there is little else to do but search and hope that one of them jumps out and bites me on the nose! It would have been nice if a ruth had jumped into the picture.

I am off to scotland tom and not back til sunday so can only hope that by then my dear killey ancestors will have decided to give me a clue. please all of you feel free to carry on sherlocking while I am roaming in the gloamin and dodging the thunderstorms!

thank you for all your help. xxxxx
