Caveene/Caneene in Malew Burials

In Brian's index to Malew burials are a number of 'Caveene's for period 1640-1680 (and none later)
I suspect these should be Caneene (the 17th C 'n' looks very like a modern 'u') (and going to Kaneene after this period) - I have a Jane Brew als Kaneene, almost certainly of Malew, mentioned in a court case of 1659 in which she is described as a midwife aged 80 years or thereabout - a Jane 'Caveene' als Brew is buried Malew 24 mar 1667
(also mentioned is Kathren Cottier of 33 years or thereabout - presumeably unmarried).

I would be grateful if anyone with access to the film could check.
