Parish of Cann

Return of Owners of Land 1873

Transcribed by Jan Genge Kennedy from a copy of the book at Dorchester Reference Library. A CD containing the information for the whole county is available from Archive CD Books

 This survey which was published in 1873 shows the owner of  land is listed together with his parish of residence, then comes the area of the land in acres, rods and perches. The last column shows the annual gross rental value. The following is a list of all those people who owned land who lived in Cann. Obviously there will be people who lived outside the parish who owned land within Cann, these are not shown as the list only gives us the address of the person, not the location of the land. Equally persons living in Cann may own land outside the parish.
