Hi, i am trying to trace my 3x great grandmother Annie Murray (nee) Clucas. I can trace her after her marriage but i'm having real trouble tracing her before that. On the census records that i have found her on it says that she was born on the Isle of Man possibly Ramsey about 1829. Her marriage certificate lists her father as a William Clucas who was a Surgeon.
any help greatly appreciated.

Did she marry in the IOM?
If not - where did she marry and what was her husbands christian name

3x great grandmother Annie Murray
Marriage entry shows her as Ann not Annie
1861 as Anne - just shows IOM
1871 as Annie - born Ramsey
Sight of the baptismal entry above will show what her fathers occ was
In 1851 - there is an Ann Clucas aged 20 b IOM working as a servant in Liverpool

Anc tree lists Ann as the daughter of William Clucas and Mary Vaust. Giving William Clucas 1801 Patrick IOM. There is a William Clucas on the 1841/51/61 census of IOM - occupation Surgeon. William is married to Julia.
1841 Maughold, Isle of Man William and Julia with 2 sons Walter and William.
1851 Waterloo road, Maughold, Isle of Man - still married to Julia, with Walter, William and Louise.
1861 Albert Road, Maughold, Isle of Man - widowed - Walter and Louise still at home.
No sign of Ann on any of those census though.
Some interesting information connected to one of those trees which might be worth a read.
If you do not have access to ancestry, then you should be able to view the tree entries on the sister site - http://www.mundia.com/gb/

Those addresses (1841-1861) are actually in Ramsey!
Parish of Maughold, town of Ramsey.
Albert Road and Waterloo Road are still there. ;D
Civil Registration began in 1878 (births & Deaths) and 1884 (for compulsory marriage registration, some before that), so will need to look at Parish Registers.
Might I suggest that you read this article? It mentions William Clucas (b1800), a doctor at Ramsey! ;D
