Click on England & Wales and not the Kindug families are located on the Isle of Man

I can't see the attachment. It asks for a login and doesn't accept my regular ancestry.com login.

PM me your regular email and I'll try to forward a copy straight from ancestry you can see.

Sorry, I have found additional sources that say that Daniel was not the son of Mary and John, his parents were Martin and Eva.
