Re: THE CRETNEY FAMILY
In Response To: THE CRETNEY FAMILY ()

Hi! Andrea.
It’s me again The records I have from IGI on Oates C give him born ‘about 1641’ with no record of his wife’s name. He has 7 children, the last being Oates C born Apr 1692 which is after Christian Faragher (wife of Oates) died 1689, according to her Will

(Summary of Wills 1680-1689 1679/80
Archd will 1689 #18 Marown, of Christian Cretney als Fargher: died 20 Dec 1689: husb Oates Cretney; son William Cretney; dau Jane Cretney; 3 children Phinlo & John & Jane Cretney exec (all underage)).

There is also no record of a Jane in the seven children listed. I assume the 3 children in the Will are Finlo (1684) & John (1686) but where is Jane?
I have seen a record in the Manx Museum of Oates Cretney buried in Rushen Cemetery on 18 Mar 1732 aged 93, which I assume is the same person.
