Hi,
Does anyone have access to baptisms for Stisted, Essex during this period?
I've recently found Thomas Cannom on the 1851 census for Whitechapel, stating that he is 77 and was born in Stisted.
He appears to be related to my rather elusive Cannom family, but I can't find baptisms for any of them. Others include Abraham, and Samuel. I have only found a marriage (he's already a widow) to Lucy Dixon and a burial for Abraham in Maldon where Samuel also lived. Samuel married Ann Coote in 1835 in Maldon; he appears on the 1841 census and there is no further trace of him.
I'd be grateful if anyone could confirm the baptism of Thomas, (or any other Cannoms) there.
Thanks in advance.

A George Cannam married Sarah Taylor in White Colne in 1793. Could be the son, Stisted only six miles away from White Colne.

Thanks everyone. Lots to go on from there, despite the fact I had a bit of a moment and gave the wrong century! (Now amended.)
I wonder whether they (apart from Thomas) remained in the area. I think the Samuel and Abraham I gave marriage details for, were a generation later, born in the Early 19th century. All of them were carpenters, so it seems to have been a family trade.
There was also an older Samuel and Mary living in Maldon in 1841, which could be the son of George and Mary,, perhaps.

The Only burial in stisted that I found up to about 1850 was George Canham on 10 June1815 aged 76, who I reckon is your George? There are no other baptisms for any names similar, which makes me think the spellings just vary over time.
