==Information== | |||
The '''Isle of Man''' (Manx: '''Ellan Vannin'''), or simply '''Mann''' (Manx: '''Mannin'''), is a self-governing Crown dependency, located in the Irish Sea between [[Ireland Genealogy|Ireland]], [[Scotland Genealogy|Scotland]], [[England Genealogy|England]] and [[Wales Genealogy|Wales]]. The official languages of the Isle of Man are '''Manx Gaelic''' and '''English''' although, by the middle of the twentieth century only a few elderly native Manx speakers remained.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Isle of Man," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Man, accessed 28 April 2016.</ref> | |||
