McCann
« on: Saturday 10 July 21 09:57 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone can help me find information about the family [Mc]Cann.
The information I have at present is :-

Joan M McCann was born in 1934 in Erpingham, Norfolk. her parents were Selina Rogers and James McCann. They were married in 1932 in Erpingham.  Jame's father was a George McCann.
 The information I am seeking is:

1} Where and when James was born?

2} where and when was George born?

3} who is Jame's mother.

I would appreciate any help as I seem to be going round in circles. Thanks in anticipation

Selina dob 11 Oct 1901, so quite a difference in age. It looks like she married someone called Jeary at some stage.

There are a couple of possibilities for James on the 1911 census, including one b Ireland - not surprising with that surname.  :)

The Jeary marriage looks like a different Selina.

Thanks for your help. I have a copy of the marriage cert for James and Selina  They married in  1932 she was 29 and he was 39 so quite a difference in age. Apparently James died fairly young I believe although I don't know when.  Selina then  married Walter Jeary in 1952.

I have just looked at the 1939  census and lo and behold there is James and Selina. It would appear either the info  re his age on the marriage cert was wrong or the census was wrong. Still I may be able to proceed. Thanks for you help.

Apologies then I was wrong. I wonder why she married as Rogers and not McCann?  So was she Seliina Elizabeth? Who was her father?

I am sorry I started a new chat but I had completely forgotten that i had already asked these questions before. A sign of getting old I am afraid.
I have now taken copies of all the previous comments so hopefully I will now be able to continue. Thanks once again
