I believe that the family originated from the Armagh area of Ireland but my reason for this inquiry is to find out as much as I can about this family in Liverpool. James was born about 1820, and married Ann Jane McWilliams about 1865 according to this letter. They had 3 children, two that lived beyond infancy: James (1867) and Robert John (1869). I would be most appreciative if any and all guideance on how to go about locating this family in Liverpool. I am also currious as to what "area" that "Tue Brook" may refer to. Also, if there are any other MACAN (McCANN) researchers in Liverpool or Armagh County Ireland area, please, let's share notes. http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=agthorn
