John Canon, i.e. Cannin or Canning, a very ancient family in this dis- 

 trict. In his "Saxons in England," Mr. Kembfe has collected a list of very 

 nearly 1400 names of English parishes ending in ing. Among snch patronymics 

 Mr. Kemble includes the name of Canning, which may serve as an illustration 

 and key to the history of names. Canning was first a family name imjyorted 

 into England twelve centuries ago. The foreign settlers who bore it naturally 

 gave it to the place at which they settled. The next step was, that individuals 

 born in or connected with the place, distinguished themselves from other Johns 

 or Williams, as John or William de Canning, or Cannings. Presently the de fell 

 into disuse, and so the word insensibly passed into a family name once more.
