Manx Genealogy

Radcliffe/Skelly/Quine Queen & Malew St. C-Town

Hello everyone!

I am researching the IOM genealogy of my 2GGrandfather, James Skelly/Radcliffe.
B. 1842 Castletown, IOM
D. 1887 Delran, NJ, USA
Father: John Skelly of Castletown
Mother: Esther Radcliffe of Castletown (1819-1883) (unmarried servant/ laborer for entire life)
Grandfather: Thomas Radcliffe of ?

I have reason to believe that James Skelly/Radcliffe is connected to the Radcliffe, Skelly, and Quine families recorded in the Census lists for Queen and Malew Streets in Castletown during the mid-late 1800s.

The Quines were a family of shoemakers in that area for most of the late 1800s.
The Radcliffes were a family of laborers and/or bakers during the same time.
I don't have much information on the Skellys, but I do know that a few were fishermen.

I am trying to figure out if and how these 3 families connect. Is anyone else related to these families, or does anyone have additional information on them?

Thanks in advance!
