Manx Genealogy

William Cown Lonan 1674

Several years ago I transcribed this will, interested in it because of the Skillicorn mention, and thinking I would sooner or later figure out who these people are. Well, I haven't figured it out, and also I wonder if I have omitted a part of the will.

In particular, "Thomas Skillicorn and Catherine Skillicorn, mother to ye above grandchildren..." bothers me. I don't see where the will says who the grandchldren are.

Can anyone help, please?
