Castletown is the largest city/town in Malew parish.
Censuses were done of the large places separately from the rest of the parish
Castletown   Malew
Peel              German
Ramsey         actually part Lezayre &  Andreas
Douglas         part Onchan & Braddan

Donna - Ramsey apart from bit North of Sulby river (which is in Lezayre)  is in Maughold !  - Andreas is parish to North West of Lezayre
any thing with a Manx Connection

Thanks for info, Frances.  I always thought that Ramsey was partly Andreas, partly Lezayre and partly Maughold.
Guess I'm getting dingy!
