Camaish Family Baptisms 1802 to 1819

Receiving a letter from Sue, I followed up a line of inquiry for the Camaish Family Household.
First stage was to check the IGI and I can confirm the following using IGI 0002 Isle of Man.
I did notice the entry; Stephen Comaish marriage to Isabel MC Namur 18 Sep 1802 Andreas on the IGI 0002, but never checked this on the Parish film record

Father: Stephen Camaish, Mother: Isabel MC Nameer (as stated on the slide IGI 0002)
1. WM. CAMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 17 MAR 1816 Andreas, Isle Of Man, England (verified as stated. PW)

2. MARY ANN CAMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 21 FEB 1819 Andreas, Isle Of Man, England (verified as stated. PW)

3. ISABEL CAMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 15 MAY 1808 Andreas, Isle Of Man, England (verified as stated. PW)

4. JAMES CAMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 08 SEP 1811 Andreas, Isle Of Man, England (verified as stated. PW)

5. JOHN CAMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 29 NOV 1802 Andreas, Isle Of Man, England (verified as stated. PW)

6. THOS. COMAISH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 13 SEP 1805 Andreas
***Note that a difference occurred on this entry for the name of the mother (Longer first name) compared to other entries and states:
Thos Comaish, (parents Stephen Camaish/Isabella MC Nameer) date remains the same and it did state Comaish and not Camaish.

That done, I decided to check the film and the source of the Film record is; Andreas 106 704 Baptisms 1665-1831

Big change here for mothers surname as it is not MC Nameer, but McNanneer and this was confirmed by Roger Sims at the museum, who thinks the surname may be of an Irish descent.
If you wish to view any of those entries, then best choice would be Wm's Baptism on the 17 Mar 1816, which is more clearer than the rest. (Note the n in other names nearby, clearly the same)

----------------------
Also (from Sue/Len):
James Camaish married an Esther Gawne in the parish of Jurby on the 17th August 1839.
Is there any more info given in the par reg for this marriage?

Sue/Len, here's the details;
Source Isle of Man Parish Registers Jurby 106 726, Marriages 1822-1854, burials 1843-1894 Page 13, No.37
Marriages solemnized in the Parish of Jurby in the Isle of Man in the year 1839
James Camaish a widower of Andreas and Esther Gawne spinster of this parish, a minor with consent of parents were married in the church by license this sixteenth day of August in the year one thousand eight hundred and thirty nine. By me John Edwd Harrison Vicar. This marriage was solemnized between us, James Comaish his X mk, Esther Camaish late Gawne her X mk, in the presence of John Lace, Daniel Teare

----------------------
Thats all I had time for apart from checking to see if there were any burials for the Camaish or similar sounding surname in the 1843-1894 Parish Records, which showed no burial entries for that name.
