NOTES

  1. Youngest son of Thomas Mylrea & Elizabeth Shimmin born 1754 Malew
  2. Six siblings: Jony 1747, John 1749, Deborah 1752, Elizabeth 1757-1757, Catherine 1759, Margaret 1762. Last two born in Rushen
  3. Four children named in Elizabeth's 1781 will [Jony, Deborah, Charles, Margaret] suggests other three had already died
  4. No concrete evidence as to father Thomas's fate. The Thomas Mylrea given as pledge for Elizabeth's will suggests that he was still alive. He was probably the Thomas Mylrea who died in Rushen 1801
  5. Jony (died 1797), Deborah (died 1802) & Charles (died 1809) continued to live in Rushen, none marrying
  6. Margaret married Peter Christian 1892, Rushen and had several children - Thomas (1795-1802), John (1797), Margaret (1800), Isabel (1802)
  7. Daughter Margaret had an illegitimate child named John Cannell in 1825, fathered by James Cannell (ref http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=640475.0)
  8. There is much about the Malew Mylreas of the 1600s and early 1700s that does not hang together so extreme caution must be exercised
