The Canning family appears to come from Northern Ireland. There was at least one branch that moved to England. The Canning family in Garvagh, Coleraine, Londonderry Co, N Ireland, had a descendant who was Prime Minister.
George Canning had arrived in Ireland in 1614 and built Agivey Castle. George's g-g-grandfather was Lord Mayor in London in 1456. George's son Paul Canning moved to Garvagh in 1647 and started to build a town on the present site.
Try contacting Garvagh High School Museum, Garvagh, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland BT51.
There is a very interesting book by local man R.W. Patterson, published by Garvagh Historical Society and printed by Impact Printing, Coleraine and Ballycastle. It contains loads of photographs, interesting stories and a Canning family tree.
