Carol Canham Harker,
Jobe Shadrack is not my direct line, but I have done some research on him.
You probably have this already, but here goes:
I do not find Job(e) Shadrack H. Canham after his marriage to Minnie E.
Hewitt on 18 Dec 1894. In 1880 he is in Franklin, Illinois with his mother
and step-dad. I have not researched Minnie. His parents are Shadrack
Canham and Mary Elizabeth Pearson (7 or 8 children); grandparents: John
Canham and Pheobe Bailey (10 children + stepchildren). That is as far as I
went. Others online show his gr-grandpts: Thomas Jr. Canham and Elizabeth
Darken, and his gr-gr-grandpts: Thomas Canham and Anna Roper.

Hi CANHAM subcribers. I'm
back again, hoping to find
someone who may know something
about my Canham - Meredith
family. I have a NARA
researcher working on this
line, but no breakthrough yet.
Grandma said there were 5
CANHAM sibblings who came from
England to Canada or the Great
Lakes Area, then they split up
and went their ways, possibly
to NY, IL, WI, PA. One may
have been named Louis, but
this is not certain.
Robert Canham shows up in the
1860 Census in Brooklyn,
Alameda, CA. It was not known
where the others went, or
their names. Anyone with
Canhams having similar
immigration patterns or other
clues please write me. -Karen

the family settled near Springfield, IL and lived there for many years.
One
