Hmmm this person has an Irish sounding surname and an English birth record ?

Is there any reliable evidence that David O'Canny existed ?

the Irish-sounding name does not appear to be the same person as the English birth record (which is for Canny).

Liz, since his origins appear to be in question, shall we protect him under US SC?

up to your team whether or not the profile needs to be managed by the US Southern Colonies Project, but it's not ready yet to be protected.

right now it seems the sources support an either/or rather than an uncertain origin - this person is either Canny born to a couple married in 1614 or O'Canny born c1610. He's one of the many "new to me" ancestors I've found in WikiTree & my family papers are no help as to which. The "sources" & surrounding profiles don't help either: birth dates on wife/child profiles don't help decide which, and "source" on attached O'Canny profile for his father calls the father Canny, m 1614.

Regardless of which we go with (Canny born after 1614 or O'Canny born 1610ish), he current LNAB is wrong, which is why the profile's not yet ready to be PPP.

Cheers, Liz

but... Jessie Jarvie has source ... a pedigree file, citing Ancestry (pay wall).

And that appears to be where this profile's info is from also.

ah. different family, I think. A search for a marriage turns up John m Joan Hougill or Chester, 9 Oct 1614 in Caton, Lancashire, England:

"England, Lancashire, Parish Registers 1538-1910," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QJDD-QWPT : 13 October 2017), John Canny and Joan Hougill Or Chester, 09 Oct 1614; citing Marriage, St Paul's Church, Caton, Lancashire, England, volume , Lancashire Record Office, Preston; FHL microfilm 1,278,857.

hmm. was going to correct LNAB, but the image in FS, if it's of this person, is clearly Canny, not O'Canny. But just as clearly, it's 1617. So maybe not this person.
