Dear Karen,

I've just been browsing the message board and have found your Cooils of Peel query. I can't help you with the parents of Robert Henry but I just thought I'd let you know that the saddler's shop in Atholl place is now a copy/toy shop. I remember it being run by a Cooil family member, still living in Peel, although latterly it was a fancy goods and handbag shop,she's a distant relation of mine.

I also see you are looking for Cooils of Arbory and Port St.Mary, My mother was one of the Cooils from Ronague and again I am distantly related to the Cooils of Port St. Mary, the line is still going strong today.

If you'd like more info contact me , - suzieq@manx.net.

Regards, Sue.
