John Attwood 1860 England (Keys or Keays association)
Greetings,
I am here in desperation to find clues to the English birthplace of John Attwood Keays (or Keys or Keyes) c1840 (not found in the civil registration). He brought with him to Ottawa, Canada a religious book published before 1700 inscribed "John Attwood May 25th 1860" followed by a maddenly illegible likely address (ink smudged badly).I am presuming he is likely the father of John Attwood Keays' wife Sarah. The book has another inscription "Thomas Rodgers 1699 ffrome".
