Ewan Christian of Lewaigue (1644-1712) was a prominent Manx politician who served as a member of the House of Keys from 1673. In 1703, he was one of three commissioners appointed by the Keys to negotiate the Act of Settlement with the Earl of Derby, an agreement that secured land tenure rights for the Manx people and is sometimes called the Manx Magna Carta. Bishop Wilson praised him as "a common benefactor to this poor place."
