Message Board Post:
I am looking for William E CAIN, born Isle of Man in 1840, parents were
William CAIN and Ellen O'NEIL and a possible older sibling to William E. was John
CAIN. Younger siblings were Catherine and Patrick. This family emigrated to
Canada between 1840 and 1850. Does anyone have these names showing up in
their research? Thank you for any help you can provide.

Have you any information as to which Parish Church your Cains attended? The
LDS has a very complete microfilm library of IOM Baptismal, Marriage and Death
records for each of the several parishes on the IOM.
I was able to trace the ancestry and immediate family of my Patrick Cain,
baptized 1712 in KK Ballaugh Parish through these excellent records. Since the
Anglican Church was the official church for the IOM, these records are all
written in English by the priest in charge of each church. The handwriting is
generally excellent and the films are excellently reproduced so that they are
very legible. These records go back to about 1500. I don't know how much past
1747 they go as this was the year that my Patrick came to America (VA) but you
can inquire at your nearest FHC for that information.
