Surname CORNER

I have traced my ggg grandmother's death on the Isle of Man in 1845 aged 40. Teresa Corner (nee Byrne) went there after her husband, Edmund, died in 1839 when a missionary in Jamaica. She had at least one living son, Edward Craig Corner, who was accepted as a day-scholar at Rev. A. Phillip's boarding school as she took in the younger boys attending the school. I have established Edward was a pupil at King William college between 1840 and 1848 and eventually was the first of my ancestors to come to Australia. I believe there is a will in existence for Teresa and would welcome any assistance in establishing if there were other members of the family there at the time, especially as someone else must have cared for Edward after her death.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
