Hi Liane,
I have Cants in my family tree, also from Essex. My 3x great grandfather Samuel migrated
to Australia in around 1853, and his father (also Samuel) came at this time or just after.
The younger Samuel landed in Hobart but later settled in Melbourne where he was an early
resident of Footscray. He died in 1886. His father lived in Berwick in the outer southeast
of Melbourne.
