Hi Paul,
I come from the other side (Holmes). I have the IOM Death indicies for the following Blakemores:
Elizabeth (Nee: Holmes) (76 yrs) Year: 1926 Douglas. Vol: A. Page: 2124
Elizabeth Agnes (Daughter) (86) Year: 1971. Douglas. Vol: 128. Page: 5718
James (Eliz husband) (78) Year: 1929. Vol: A. Page: 2221.
James Neville (Son)  (80) Year: 1965. Vol: 149. Page: 3883.

I would like to purchase certificates from the Civil Reg, IOM but it is difficult to pay for them from Australia
I am John Holmes (Elizabeth's father) G.G.G.Grandson.

My email address is *

Cheers for now......John

Hi again Paul,
Which census are you talking about? I have a suspicion that Henry & Harry maybe twins? The info I have is that Fred was born & died in 1882, do you know anything about this?
Cheers for now....John
