Manx Genealogy

Robert Christian b Maughold

Robert Christian born Maughold c1829. In 1851 he was aged 22 and living at home with his parents at Port e Vullyn.
He married a Catherine (surname unknown) who was born Arbory.
His father was a Thomas Christian, a weaver, born Maughold c1796 (55 in 1851), who married a Margaret.
BUT, who was Thomas's father?

I've had a quick look through Maughold baptisms for Thomas Christian's born 1790-1802 and found 2.

1796/2/7 Son of Wm Christian and Ann Kelly

1802/3/12 Son of Wm Christian and Margt Kerruish

Would it be reasonably safe to assume it is the 1796 record? Anyone done this family before?
