Re: Sansbury
In Response To: Re: Sansbury ()

my reference on Christian names (Charlotte Yonge pub 1878) give Grace as an Irish takeover of a Puritan name (ie post 16th C) replacing Graine - I'm happy to be corrected but I've never seen it as referring to Joney - Kneen has Graise (for Grace) but denotes it as Irish not Manx.
