Thanks for all your hard work, Wendy. It's not that I'm concentrating on one side or t'other, I just want to find *anyone* connected so I can get this thing to 'em !

I'll digest your results and see what comes of it.

Cheers !

There's just a possibility that I may be vaguely connected with a Jane Cannon who married Miles Wilson in Crosthwaite, Cumberland on 22/12/1851. Her father was recorded as John.

Any links?

Thanks Stuart,

I'll post a fuller tree when I get a chance.

Cheers,

I might have to try that one at some point.

Cheers,

Hi Mike- Firstly can I say what a wonderful thing you're trying to do- good luck!
You've probably tried this before but I'll tell you what I found anyway!
I went on GenesReunited & found a lady called Janine who has 2 Cannons listed for Whitehaven Patrick (born 1891) & Elizabeth J (born 1885). There were quite a number of Cannons listed for Birkenhead but nothing specific.
Will go back & check St. Bees as I didn't before- DOH!
All the best
Woodydog
Pratt- Catterick/Richmond N.Yorks & Wilsden/Halifax West Yorks
Maylor- Preston/ Poulton Le Fylde
Whitaker- Halifax
Dixon- London & Yorkshire
Booth-Middleton,Oldham,Royton,Lancs
Boyling-Oldham,Royton & Shropshire
Harris- Bradford, Prestwich Manchester
SMITH!! Kirkcaldy, Manchester
Sturgess-  Preston Candover, Hampshire & London
Nixon- London
Walters- London & Hampshire
Settle - Halifax & Brighouse

Nothing for St.Bees another 2 possibles?
John Cannon (born 1893 Whitehaven(
Thomas Cannon (Born 1896 Cleator Moor)
Just let me know if you'd like me to contact any of these if you're not a member.... I have posted a message on the Cannon history message board on GenesReunited telling folk about your search & directing them to rootschat, hope you don't mind.
Just let me know if I can help
