There is a Windsor Ontario marriage license for Isaac Vannertwick and Anna McCann. Isaac was born about 1842 and Ann was born abt 1861, both reported as b. NY. Anna's Father died in the Civil War at Vicksburg on 3 June 1865. At the time of the 1860 Census, Anna's parents had a daughter named Mary who was one year old and born in MN, likely Hart, Winona, MN. At the time of the 1900 Census, there was an Isaac S. Van Nortwick b. Apr 1842 age 58 w/ wife Anna b. Aug 1862 age 37 living in Walker, Ken, Michigan w/ Jennie Y. b. Jan 1890 age 10, Myrtle E. b.

Found a clergyman by the name of Wilton McCann 36 who sailed from Marseilles, France to London, England in 1927 with his brother Ivan B. McCann 32 physician. Also with them were Robert McCann 70 "Secretary" and Muriel McCann 68 whose address was Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, England. Wilton McCann served in France in 1918 as a "Rev." for the Y.M.C.A. Via Google you can locate a book for sale which was once owned by a Wilton McCann. Wilton and Ivan are with Mother "Minnie" McCann in the 1901 Census of England. Minnie is listed as having been born in Limerick, Ireland, Wilton in Belfast, Ireland, and Ivan in Bangor, Ireland. Minnie is listed as married but Robert is not with this family in Harrogate, Yorkshire, England. There is a death record for an Ivan McCann in 1948, Essex, England. Hope that someone else does a search someday, hits on this email and responds to your original inquiry with a real connection. Regards, Jane P.S. Since both Wilton and Noel are used as surnames, I'm wondering if that was Muriel's Father's name, Wilton Noel? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Welcome to the McCann List, Maggie. Unfortunately, all of my McCann research has been in the States. (As an aside, there is a John Power who m. 1834 Jane McCann in Indiana, USA but no son Patrick, yet they were still having children up to 1856.) We have had a few postings about McCanns in Canada. You might search our archives. It does sound somewhat feasible that the John Power and Mary McMahon marriage in 1831 could be your John Power and Mary McCann. I have seen McCann and McMahon being confused. That could more easily occur, as you pointed out, in a non-English speaking community or where there were more McMahons than McCanns. Have you seen the Census enumeration of 1851 for Notre Dame, Quebec, Quebec? The following Patrick Power who was in Notre Dame, Quebec, Quebec, Canada doesn't seem to fit yours, but may be worth recording: Patrick Power under age one b. Canada, Catholic apparently in a household with a Thomas Power, Seaman, b. Ireland, Catholic, next birthday will be 33, male. After Thomas is listed May Morgan b. Ireland, Catholic, next birthday will be 25, female. After May is Mary Power b. Ireland, Catholic, next birthday will be 3, female. Patrick is listed after Mary. Looks like other young families have the wife/mother listed with what may be her maiden name. There is also what appears to be a church baptismal record for a Patrick Power dated 1851 with the location noted as Paspebiac and possibly Notre Dame parish[?] in Quebec. This record is handwritten in French, and unfortunately my French lessons occurred too many decades ago. . . . other names in the record are William Power and then Daniel and Mary??? Devon? and James Power and manaine Anatorie Kuord? There is another church record, possibly baptism, for a Patrick Power dated Dix Sept Fevrier [17 February]1845 with the location noted as Basilque Notre-Dame, Montreal, Quebec. Other names are John Power and Margret Malony, John Malony and Margrine Mary Anne Martin. This one looks like a real possibility if the 1845 date is close enough to be your Patrick. Best regards, Jane

hi, I'm new here, and at a dead end. Looking for Mary McCann (Ire) who married John Power (Ire). The Quebec census shows that their son Patrick was born in Quebec around 1850(ish) - but not sure if Mary McCann & John Power came to Quebec separately and then married here or whether they were already married in Ireland before they came. I can't find any records at all about Mary McCann except that she's named as Patrick's mother on his marriage record (married Mary McCarthy in 1879). There is a marriage btwn John Power and Mary McMahon in 1831 in Quebec (could that be it?) Patrick would be my gggrandfather. His first daughter, Mary Ann, had a daughter named Marguine (unusual, and I wonder if it's some variation on McCann?) Patrick was illiterate so that complicates things - given the pronunciation of Irish names translated by a [possibly] French parish priest. Also, it's possible Mary McCann went by another name (Ellen or Ann perhaps) b/c lots of Roman Catholic families named their daughters Mary (sometimes ALL their daughters) and then went by the second name, if that makes any sense :o) Any info, suggestions, ideas would be appreciated. cheers maggie _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch. http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9712959

Happen to run across a Robert McCain/McCann family in Franklin, Crawford County Kansas, they had 5 of their 11 children born there, The 1880 census lists them as McCann's. I haven't seen it myself, but wonder if they could relate to our Stephen McCann (who could be a brother to either our Peter or Margaret McCann from Armagh,Ireland,Mass and Mauston, Wisconsin, When Stephen McCann purchased the land from the government in Wisconsin it was in Adams County, Our search continues.

Does anyone have a Lovicia Ironmongar in thir Ancestry who could have been the third wife of Patrick McCann? I have no way of knowing if this is the Patrick that we're searching for. Ann
