Hi Elaine

I found this marriage entry:

Copied and pasted from Brian Lawson's marriage index for IOM:

CHRISTIAN, John Lonford Mel 1884 P A1 25 KELLY, Christian Faith

*****************************************
Strange that there's no day or month given.

********************************
I couldn't find any of the births of the children of this couple in the Manx birth index, but when I looked on the mainland, this one came up:

England & Wales, FreeBMD Birth Index, 1837-1915
about Caroline Florence F Christian
Name: Caroline Florence F Christian
Year of Registration: 1884
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Braintree
County: Essex
Volume: 4a
Page: 544

***************************************
Hope this helps.
