HI ANN

I THINK WE ARE DISTANT RELATIVES.
I LIVE IN BARROW MY GRANDMOTHER WAS ETHEL MAY QUALYLE BORN 1899 PEEL., HER MOTHER WAS CATHERINE BANNAN BORN ANDREAS 1866 I THINK HERIETTA MAY HAVE BEEN HER SISTER AS THERE WAS 10 IN HER FAMILY AN HERIETTA WAS BORN IN 1864 BUT DIED IN 1876 AND THEN ANOTHER ONE BORN IN 1870/80. DO YOU THINK WE ARE OF THE SAME BANNAN FAMILY?

MY GREAT GRANDPARENTS CAHTERINE QUAYLE(BANNAN) AND JOHN QUAYLE CAME TO BARROW IN 1905 TO WORK AS DID MANY MANX PEOPLE AND THER ARE BURIED IN THE CEMETRY HERE.
