Can anyone give this a quick look up next time they are in Douglas, please?? I am looking for Catherine Christian who was born in 1851 (ish), she was 40 on the 1891 census which was taken in April 1891. She married a William Teare quite possibly from IOM also but I don't know for sure. The oldest 3 children were born in Cleator Moor, Cumberland and the youngest 4 were all born on IOM according to the census. The Manx born children are Eleanor Margaret Teare c1881 (my great grandmother), Richard H. Teare c1883, Evan Teare c1885 and Florence C. Teare c1889. I have looked on 1837 to find evidence of a marriage in England but to no avail so I am assuming that the marriage took place in IOM.Help! I don't want to sound desperate but, HELP!! As always, deeply in your debt. Tracey
