"Betty and Sarah - thank you both for your help and suggestions. I had used the Scotland's People site a few years back but haven't been there since. Adoption, for some reason, had not occurred to me but seems an obvious tack to take. I…"

Sarah MacLean replied to Clifton Cann's discussion Francis Arnett in the group Scotland and Scottish Ancestry
"Clifton, Have you used the official Scottish Record Officer website Scotlandspast yet? It has the 1841 census which would help you narrow down if the Arnett's arrived before 1841 or after 1841. It also has old parish records you can search…"

Francis Arnett

My 3rd Great Grandfather, Francis Arnett was born somewhere in Scotland in about 1803. According to IGI records, he married Sarah Wright 4th or 5th of May 1833 at Middle Church, Paisley, Renfrew, Scotland. Surprisingly the information I have is that their son Peter (my 2nd Great Grandfather) was born 5 years earlier 4 Aug 1828. Then sometime between 1833 and 1847 Francis and Sarah with Peter came to Canada and settled in Ontario where their daughter Margaret was born in July of 1847. I am…See More

Clifton:

There are two Robert Cann's Christened in 1828, in Morchard Bishop.

Robert Cann, son of John and Jane June 29, 1828, Father a laborer and resided at Green. Mother: Jane Drew

Robert Cann, son of Richard and Thomazin, Dec 7, 1828,
Father a miller at Bugbeer Mill. Mother Thomazin Wreford

The next Christening is not until 1838.
If you think it might be earlier than 1828 there are more Christenings.

A lovely day in Victoria, today. So good to be cooler.
