Thanks, I learn something new every day ! It's a Robert Costain b 1818/1820 who md Ann Archibald in Malew . My dreaded Kellys again ! I saw the marriage to Ann at Manx museum but I have no note of Robert's parents but I have noted that a George Costain was a witness. On census forms it says born Castletown but apart from that I have noothe info on obert Costain. I only work on my Kellys branch every now & again & I do get further each time but they are difficult as they were a poor lot from what I can glean
