hi
 it may have been sydney  , my dad was named george cain born 27th dec 1921 isle of man mother catherine  age 22 domestic servant unmarried it seems he went under her name, he was passed onto a family called crennells he was entered into schools by a edith crennell then later years passed to family in same house called kelly,  my dad would not speak or hear of his mother , i dont know why he had us all believe he was born in australia it came as a shock to find he was born here on the island,  i think sydney but it could be any place that manx people emigrated to, thanks for replying

Hi River   

If Catherine did come to Sydney you could try a search of the births, deaths and marriages which are online for certain years.

There is a Catherine Cain who married a James Wilson in 1926

www.bdm.nsw.gov.au              (historical indexes)

Hope you have some luck

Hi River,

You probably already have this, but here is the family in the 1901 census.

Class: RG13, Piece 5305, Folio 6, Page 3

Isle of Man, Civil Parish of Conchan, Ecclesiastical Parish of Douglas St George, Town of Douglas

14 Bridge Road
John Thos Cain, Head, M, 37, Coal Carter, Worker, born Isle of Man, German
Julia Jane Cain, Wife, M, 36, born Isle of Man, Patrick
John Jos Cain, Son, 7, born Isle of Man, Douglas
Catherine Elizth Cain, Daur, 1, born Isle of Man, Douglas
Harriett Comaish, niece to wife, S, 19, General Servant Domestic, Worker, born Isle of Man, Lerayro
Edith Comaish, Daur Boarder, 1, born Isle of Man, Braddan

I apologise if the town names are incorrect, I know nothing about the Isle of Man (other than they have great Harry Potter stamps).

I guess that Edith may be the daughter of Harriett.  I only guess this as she is listed below Harriett with Daur crossed out.

hi debbie
 yes thanks i do have all the info you sent me,
i may have to give up on all this soon as  ive spent a very long time trying to find out where catherine went after she gave birth to  my late father and left him  with other people , even her half sister harriet vanished when she had her daughter in 1900 she also left her and she was put in hands of other people , do you like harry potter then debbie, im not all that keen, but the stamps are good let me know if you want a couple i will get you  they. we also do or did our own currency in harry potter as well, any way thanks for that,,,,,margaret
