I have several McCann's in my lineage and was recently visiting Woodlawn Cemetery in Elmira, NY for ancestor's grave markers when I found 2 VERY OLD, partcially buried headstones for 2 McCann's that I cannot place....a FRANCIS McCANN and his wife SARA. Both were born in Antrim, Belfast, Ireland!! I don't know if this is the Francis McCann you are inquiring about but I thought I would let you know of my find. I have pictures of the headstones and would share them with you if you are interested. Perhaps we can exchange information and help one another place some "Twigs" on our Trees.

The oldest is a marker for Daniel McCann who died 8 Sep 1872 aged 77y 4m 22d. Based on the Census of 1850-1870, Daniel appears to have been the Father of Daniel T. McCann 1844-1936 also buried in this cem. with his wife "Catharine Welch" 1853-1917. Several of Daniel & Catharine's sons are buried near them --- Frank H. 1875-1971, Ray A. 1889-1976, and Joseph D.1884-1967 & his wife Blanche C.(Heffley) 1891-1945.

McCann as he must have been a truly remarkable man. I will email you with a photo of my Uncle and Aunt's wedding. I will also send you an invitation to be a guest on my Richards Tree as you may like to read about my Aunt Eileeen - Eileen Best. Not much information but every little helps. Have you asked the NSPCC if they have any information or records perhaps of children that Rev McCann befriended? Good luck and I would love to see the photo of the Bishop's Chair.

With my broadband down for 3 days there was a lot of emails waiting for me and there was another one about Rev. McCann and it was from the Rev. Steven Saxby who says: "I have a Bishop's chair from a redundant church which has legitimately come into my possession. I inherited it from my predecessor when I moved into my current vicarage. Anyway I just googled the name on it to find out which church it came from. I now realise it was St. Paul's at Westcliff (Southend) as the inscription on the chair says it was given in memory of - you guessed it - Rev. Wilton N. McCann - Vicar of that church from 1921 - 1929. I was so glad to discover all your notes. Peace and joy. Fr.Steven." I have asked him if he could supply a photo, fingers crossed, Sue.

My email address is susan.jones12@btconnect.com, or if you need it, I will let you have my address. I have 2 people from my family that the Rev. McCann helped, my mother and her sister, and through posting this enquiry I have found 2 other people who have their own stories. There are many hundreds more. There is a book written by Wilfred Pickles (you may be too young to remember him!) Its called "Ne'er forget the People" and its about people he felt had had a great influence on the 20th Century. One of his subjects was the Rev. McCann. Again thank you for contacting me. with best wishes, Susan. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
