Hi Catherine,
Have just come across your posting,and believe I am tracing the same family.
My wifes great grandfather was John Keig born about 1843 (shown on your posting)and believe his parents were Thomas Keig and Ann Clucas from Ballakillowey Rushen .
I have been unable to definitively verify parentage because therewere numerous John Keigs of the same age in and around Rushen. My John Keig apparently didnt marry his partner Jane Gale (nee Gawne, she had previously been married to Sam Gale a fisherman but can find no death notice for Sam so that could be why they never married). With no marriage certificate their is no statement of parentage.
My John Keig and Jane went on to have 4 children (she already had a son Samuel from her marriage to Sam Gale) one of which was Catherine who was my wifes grandmother.
I would love to tie this one down so would be grateful for any other matching information.
