Per Manx Note Book they were in Ohio USA for 1880 census
US Census 1880
Ohio
Manx born
Louisa Jane b 1865 dau
Margaret b 1847 wife
William 1845 self

William was referred to in some notes as William HALE DeMeza. Wonder if mother's maiden name was Hale?

The old board info I have in my database, indicated that Demeza started out in Portugal, then went to England, then IOM.
Writer was descendant of William DeMeza

Said Fa William b 1801 and Jane b 1803 both in England.
Some of their children were b in Manchester

Perhaps you need to go to English records?

There are a bunch of Jane Hales b in proper time frame in English IGI.
