John & Elizabeth CANNEM/CANHAM, England
I have decided to attack a brick wall that I hit in my CANNEM research 20 - 30 years ago. My 2nd great grandfather was William CANNEM born in England around 1817 to John & Elizabeth. William lived in Kingston, Ontario, CANADA from bef. 1838 to 1887 when he died. He and his sons were involved in shipping are ship wrights (carpenter) and sailors.
The only leads that I have found to date searching the major search engines have turned up a John & Elizabeth CANHAM had a son William May 15, 1817 in Suffolk, England.
My search has also lead to a marriage record between a John CANHAM and an Elizabeth Sealey, by Banns Feb 19, 1799, at St. Andrew Holborn in London, England.
I am unsure of either of the above links and I would appreciate any help proving or disproving either one.
