hi
 i e just came across this old post
and i m researching it for a familly member
Peter McCann Born Ireland,
married Margaret Gambob 30/1/1826
since then her maiden name varies
a lot ie Gambol Gemmel Garniel
the birth of their 1st child Michael 16/11/1826
Michael marries Christina McKenzie 1848
their son Michael was born 1859
he marries Magaret Campbell 1881
up till this point they remain in Ayr, St margarets and St Quivox
the McCann names changes on different documents
varying from McCann to McClane McCain McGown Mckean
from Ayr Michael and Margaret then appear in Govan
birth of their son John Campbell McCann 1892
1901 they are in Kinning park Margaret is gone and Agnes Aiken appears

hi
   i myself am not connected to the McCanns
my future daughter inlaw is she stems from
Michael  McCann and Christina Mckenzie
then their son Michael and Margaret Campbell
then John Campbell McCann and Sarah Fowler,
John was born in Govan,
But previous  generation are born Ayrshire,
except Peter who was born Ireland Abt 1792
his wife Margaret was born Ayrshire according to census
her maiden name i can t be certain of as i ve found
5 variations on marriage births and census docs
ranging from Gambol to Gemmell,
the McCann name also varies a lot
