Thanks anne,

Now that you have the birth the surname seems to be Manger.......I was using the Irish link to an Irish name with there being a ? next to Manger & Mangan seemed a close fit.

Many thanks, Anne. Will add the details to my Ramsey files... when I can find all of it. In the last year my office was reduced to another room a third of its size, my computer stopped speaking to me and is still holding my files hostage, have had an auction and large part of books were sold, then moved house not once but twice in 3 months. So, today finally was the start of sorting boxes of family trees, etc.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
