Member Since: July 2004 Posts: 483 Send Message	I am trying to trace Francis Cannings on the 1871 and 1881 census. I am almost sure his father was a John Cannings Francis b 1862 John b1838 and wife Ann b1840 all of Newbury Berkshire. I think I have John living at Bath Court on 1881 census. Francis married in 1890 to Elizabeth and have him on 1901 census with his wife and family but unable to trace earlier on census, I hope I have given enough details. Any help graciously accepted. Thank you
