Denise, if you look at “Speculation 2” you’ll see that there are 2 children born in 1810/1811 named Cath Caveen. They were both born in Castletown. I’ve been trying to work out which was which so that if you can find living descendants, you can look for a DNA match (or non match) to you.
Here are my notes:
******
Distinguishing between:
CC 1)--- Cath Caveen bap 28 Feb 1811 Malew to Thos Caveen and Cath Harrison
and
CC 2)---- Cath Caveen bap 30 Sept 1810 Malew, illegitimate daughter of Thos Caveen and Jane Killey
You might expect to have a DNA match to a descendant of CC 2) but either a very weak match or a non-match to CC 1).

I’ve just noticed that your Ancestry tree lists the names of 4 tree owners who have a DNA match to you.
Noreen, who is one of those matches, has assumed that Cath Quilliam nee Caveen (her g g grandmother) is the daughter of Thos Caveen and Cath Harrison. But because we now know that Thomas Caveen b 1782 –husband of Cath Harrison – was the son of Richard Caveen (therefore only very distantly related to you, link as yet unknown, or not related at all ), we can speculate that her Cath Quilliam nee Caveen b 1810 was the illegitimate daughter of Thomas Caveen b 1756 and Jane Killey.
This would make Noreen a g g g g granddaughter of Thomas Caveen and Cath Cubbon (and you are a g g g g g granddaughter of Thos Caveen and Cath Cubbon ?)---I think that this makes you and Noreen 5th cousins-once-removed. Does your DNA match (cMorgans) reflect this ?
You mention a “Meghan” in your list of matches---I can’t find a tree for her.
