About This Tour
Nikki my wife is a proud Manxie, a Kermode by birth. Her ancestors date back to the 1600's. She has a vast knowledge on the island and is excellent at find graves. Being a grave digger's daughter she's also dug a few. It can be tricky trying to decipher the hand writing in many of the Island's records, thankfully Nikki is good at this and with her knowledge it's much quicker. Plus she has resources to hand and we sometimes find that she has already research a family in the past. If you're looking for accommodation we can arrange this too, either at our Inn / Bed and Breakfast Albany House or some where local. Price is additional.
