Stoke Canon
Stoke Canon is a small village and civil parish near the confluence of the rivers Exe and Culm on the main A396 between Exeter and Tiverton in the English county of Devon, and the district of East Devon. At the 2001 census it had a population of 660. The population was unchanged in 2011 but the village forms the major part of the Exe Valley electoral ward. The population of this ward was 2,041 at the 2011 Census. There is a pub, The Stoke Canon Inn, and a post office and general stores in the centre of the village. ==The church==
The Church (St. Mary) was wholly rebuilt in 1836, except for the west tower, at the cost of £1000. The interior is neatly fitted up, and the tower has a clock and four bells. It contains a remarkable font of Norman date, made from a single block of lava, and a number of 17th-century floor slabs to local families. It was here in 1666, at this 14th-century church, that George Boone III, grandfather of the famous American pioneer Daniel Boone, was baptized.〔(Boone Society article )〕
