Notes:

His grand - daughter, Joan Balson nee Robertson, wrote to her son Dermot Balson, "He (Henry McCann) was a good - looking young man, who played cricket and enjoyed good company. He was allowed one night a year by my grandmother - New Year's Eve, when even she relaxed the rules. As far as I could gather he used to come home extremely late - or rather, early - very much the worse for wear. Being tall and dark he like my father, was much in demand for 'first - footing'."

Dermot Balson he writes "My mother Joan wrote 'My grandmother was courted by a neighbouring farmer, who was favoured by her parents. She, however, had her own ideas and married Henry McCann, handsome but, naturally, without any money. She only had one child, my mother (Johan). She said, mysteriously, that it was because of sitting on wet grass at a cricket match that she had no more children. My mother was christened Joan Aitken, the Aitken being after another branch of the family which had emigrated to Canada."
