Trying to find information about the parents to move the line upwards

Isabel Feb 15 1784. (Buried Onchan 4 Jan 1813)

William January 30 1791
John June 16 1793 (married Margaret Kelly in Braddan)

On the parents this is what is known:

Mother: The Braddan register says "Isabel Quine ny Mealey als Corkill to Conchan". It seems "ny Mealay" would mean "of .....with a place name. (Nearey will be from yn Eary - the hill pasture, Corkey is oates. Found a reference to a place named Mealey in Lezayre, but there may be another?)

Father: John.... I thought he would be from Oncan before Braddan but I am no longer sure.

Any information upwards or where they are living in Braddan around the 1790's would be appreciated.
