NOTES
- Children John, Ellin, Match; no definite baptisms for them
- Husband Dollin/Daniel Cannell
- She was mentioned in the will of Christian Ilerea in 1600 as Christian's sister so there was another sister named Ann and a brother, John. Christian also mentioned half sister, meaning that one of her parents had died and the other remarried
- No definite information about Jony's origins but the 1600 will of Christian Ilerea was from Ballaugh
- Another Christian Mcylrea died in 1603 in Ballaugh and she was almost certainly the daughter of Raynold & Ellin, nominating siblings that accord with the wills of Raynold & Ellin.
