I'm looking for information about Elizabeth Cashin - born 1822-1824 - IOM - I have information about her after she married Arthur Carson in 1844 but nothing before that, any information would be welcome,

I'm looking for information about Elizabeth Cashin - born 1822-1824 - IOM - I have information about her after she married Arthur Carson in 1844 but nothing before that, any information would be welcome,

A search of the 1841 census for IOM doesn't bring up an Elizabeth CASHIN but there are the following close calls:

-- Elizabeth CASHEN born about 1827 in England, living in Braddan IOM
-- Elizabeth CASSON born abt 1821 England, in Onchan
-- Elizth CASSON born abt 1821 IOM, in Conchan

Any possibilities? Remember that ages were rounded down to the nearest 5 years. So if Elizabeth was 19 to 21, her birthyear was probably given as 1821 or 1826.

Regards,
Trish

Thanks for your help

My understanding is that the IGI is complete for IoM.

Had a look on Elizabeth Cashin on IGI - no matches - even tried the wildcard* on the surname just in case it was spelt differently as in previous message

[Peter Goodey]

But there are matches for Elizabeth CASSON (see Trish's message).

Jan,

Where were Arthur and Elizabeth married -- in Lancashire? If Lancashire, perhaps Elizabeth's family had moved there from IOM and are living in the vicinity of Wavertree in the 1841 census [in which case their IOM origins wouldn't likely be indicated -- only that they were born out of the county].

I don't see a John CASHIN -- or any reasonable variation thereof -- with occupation of tailor associated with IOM in the 1841 census but he could have been deceased by then.

The 1851 census shows an Elizabeth CHAIR, 20, sister-in-law to the head, born IOM, living with Arthur and Elizabeth. [HO107/2192 Folio 1024 Page 20] Her marital status is not indicated. It doesn't seem likely that Elizabeth would have a younger sister also named Elizabeth but the exact nature of their relationship may give you a clue as to your Elizabeth's background.
