  • Notes 
    • Trayton Cane and The Findon Windmill

      The occupier of the Findon windmill in West Sussex, England abt 1842 was Trayton Cane. He was a youthful miller and maltster. He resided in one of the Mill Cottages which by now had been built on the adjacent land. Trayton married Elizabeth Hersee on 16th June 1842 in nearby Angmering. The marriage record stated he was "of Findon, miller". Trayton had two children while living there before moving to Galt, Ontario, Canada. There was only two mill cottages at the mill, the residence of the other cottage was Harriet Cane and her son William, possibly brother and mother of Trayton. Trayton is buried in the Trinity Anglican Cemetery in Cambridge, Ontario.
