Skinner & Kewney

I don't seem to be having any luck finding my line on IOM. James Skinner, born about 1812 and Jane Kewney, born about 1815. Who is their kin? I can't pick up their lines before I find them in America about 1830. Does anyone know who they belong to? Is "Kewney" an English, Irish, or Scotch name? I think I've scanned every Skinner line of that time period and no luck. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places. Help Please! Thank You.
