I just recently got on this email. I love doing family tree research but have very little time to do it with a full time job. So, I've been monitoring replies to see if the names I am interested in, show up. Hey - I think (at home of course) I might have info on these McCanns. I think they are ancestors of my husband, through his mother. I'll look tonight, then contact me since I'm not sure who is asking for what info.
