Biography: Married: Robert McLeod. Groom's marital status: Bachelor. Groom's father: Roderick Mcleod. Bride's marital status: Spinster. Bride's father: William Maddrell. (MS10400/4/3)

Or did she marry much younger?

For our Info - Catherine in 1851 - shown as born Rushen (a parish in the SW of the I of M). It doesn't include Castletown (see previous post), but Castletown appears to be the largest place nearby and as such may have been a place name recognised by people elsewhere.

Castletown is in the Malew parish and there is a Catherine Maddrell b 1838 Malew on the 1851 census so she could be Margee's find?

I have been unable on Ancestry to find my Gt Gt grandmother Catherine Maddrell born 1836 in the 1861 IOM census. I have been told that she does appear in the 1861 Census which apparently shows her working as a house maid in the home of Edward Gawne. This was a wealthy family as there were 12 indoor servants - governess, butler, housekeeper, footmen etc. I believe the residence was Kentraugh House.

She does appear in the 1841 and 1951 Census as the daughter of William Maddrell Tailor and Ann (M/S Turnbull)

I'd be grateful if anyone can help me find her 1861 entry.
