There are lots of McCann's as you probably found out..if you can get more information, i would check with Church of Latter Day Saints as they have quite alot of genealogy information.sorry i couldn't be of more help! Good luck with your research. You may also want to check with any churches that your grandparents may have been associated with in Wishaw /Lanarkshire--you may find birth/marriage/death records thru them.
