In Response To: Correct Spelling ()

correct spelling is a concept unknown to Manx parish clerks - all will be found as they used pronounciation and Manx language as their guide in rendering names into English - you can look up a map to see the 'standardised' choice adopted by the Ordnance survey from 1868 and then made 'official' by dint of repetition
