This post demonstrates how I am continuing the find new facts that change my understanding. I already have to make a correction to a previous post. This morning I was doing some research and discovered John McCann's baptismal record, and we had his place of birth wrong. Turns out he and his family were from what is now Northern Ireland. I don't plan to go into a lot of detail here as I want to do a much deeper dive into that branch one of these days, so here is a quick correction.
John McCann was baptized as a Catholic on July 10th, 1831 in the village of Clonoe, County Tyrone.
I have also found a record for a Mary Clasby's baptism on July 24th, 1835 in the village of Cappataggle, County Galway. I am very confident that this John McCann is our ancestry, but not nearly as confident that this Mary Clasby is his wife. I'll have to keep researching.
