Abraham,
this was taken soon after he moved to Canada.

Abraham Cansdale's (1884 -
1964) marriage to Ethel Kendall (our record has her listed
as Ethel May Kendall, and that she died a year after their marriage.)
All of the following names are ancestors from Bures or the Lamarsh
area
Abraham's mother was Louisa Hayward (1851-1938). Abraham's
father was Edwin C. Cansdale 1851 - 1935.
Our Cansdale lineage goes back to
Henry Cansdale. We have no dates for him, but his son Thomas
Cansdale lived from 1665 to 1742.
Louisa's parents were Thomas Hayward 1845 - 1860 and Sarah Clampin
1812 - 1862.
Thomas Hayward's parents Joseph
Hayward of Lamarsh 1780 - 1862, and Mary Tracy 1780 - 1850.
(The Tracy lineage gets really interesting,
but that's another story. Do you know of any Tracy's in Bures?)
Our earliest Hayward record is of
Jonathan Hayward b. 1725 but no place of birth is recorded.
According to records from ancestry.com his son Jonathan was born
in Lexden in 1755. His wife, Judith/Juda Eves/Eaves is my
5th great grandmother and was born in Lamarsh about 1745. I wonder
if the names Eaves is familiar to you.
Abraham (my 3rd great grandfather) was married to Susannah Bray
1822-1889.
Her parents were James Bray 1788
- 1853 and Mary Dyer 1794 - 1881.
Mary's parents Mary Layzel 1777
- 1843 and William Dyer 1772 - 1850
James Bray's parents were Henry
Bray 1760 - 1842 and Elizabeth Carter 1764 - 1842.
The earliest Layzel in our tree is my 7th great grandfather Thomas
Layzel 1712 - 1792. His wife was Elizabeth Marshall 1718 - 1797
I also have a great uncle Abraham Cansdale 1864 - 1950 who
was married to Eliza Kemp 1869 -1965
Sarah Boggis d.1782 was my 5th great grandmother, wife of
Henry Cansdale 1739 - 1821.
Hannah Cousins 1780 - 1849 was my fourth great grandmother,
wife of James Cansdale 1781 - 1860.
My second great aunt Kate Louisa Cansdale 1878 - 1963 was
married to a Sydney Cook d. 1961, which I mention only because
I noticed a lot of Cooks in the cemetery.
Charles W. and Frank, sons of William
and Ellen are Wills first cousins.
