found: Wikipedia, viewed Jan. 19, 2023:Elizabeth Canning (Elizabeth Canning (married name Treat; 17 September 1734-June 1773) was an English maidservant who claimed to have been kidnapped and held against her will in a hayloft for almost a month. She ultimately became central to one of the most famous English criminal mysteries of the 18th century. Canning was born on 17 September 1734 in the City of London, the eldest of five surviving children born to William (a carpenter) and Elizabeth Canning. Her schooling was limited to only a few months at a writing school, and aged 15 or 16 she worked as a maidservant in the household of nearby publican John Wintlebury.) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Canning
