A detailed administrative report from the Manx authorities (Governor, Officers, Deemsters, and Keys) examining the competing claims to tenancy of Knockaloe estate between Silvester Cross and Henry Harrison. The report traces the complex lineage and lease history from 1637 onwards, ultimately determining that Cross has the rightful claim as next of kin under Manx customary law. This document illustrates property rights, succession law, and the mechanics of Manx governance.
