****************************************
This John Kneen had a younger brother, Philip b 1794, which fits with the Dollough families above in 1841 and 1851.

But I can't find a baptism for a William Kneen in Ballaugh to John Kneen and Ann Cowin. Going back to the 1841 household of John and Ann, of the 4 younger household members (their children, presumably) only one has a baptism extracted from the parish register in the IGI (Thomas 1809 Ballaugh)
