Re: Miss Annie Quayle Ballaskella, 1877

Yes, her sister was my great-great grandmother, Eunice Eliza:
William Quayle b.18.1.1811, m. Margaret Killip, b. 1810, married 1836 - children:
John James b. 1.12.1836
William 9.9.1838, emigrated to Australia
Thomas 23.8.1840
Sophia Jane b. 11.9.1842, m. Hugh Kneen
Edward Henry b. 1845
Ann Margaret b. 26.3.1848, died 1913, married Thomas Curphey
Eleanor b.1851
Eunice Eliza b. 18.12.1853, married John James Corlett 8.6.1876 in Manchester,
children Leonard 2.7.1877, Una (my grandmother) 5.7.1881, Douglas 6.7.1886 (all July babies!)

1881 Census:

Ballaskella, Lezayre

Margaret Quayle, widow, age 71 b. Lonan IOM
Edward son Unmarried, age 36 b. Lezayre
Ann dau. unmarried, age 32 b. Lezayre
Elenor dau. unmarried age 29, b. Lezayre
William Quayle, grandson age 13 b. Lezayre
Thomas Cleator, servant, age 27

I believe Ballaskella was abandoned soon after this census and I would like to know what happened and why it was abandoned?
