Hello rosyturn,

Weather.com says three (
http://www.weather.com/search/enhanced?where=canby&what=WeatherLocalUndeclared&lswe=canby&lswa=WeatherLocalUndeclared&whatprefs=&x=0&y=0
).

MapQuest says five (
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&countryid=250&addtohistory=&searchtab=address&searchtype=address&address=&city=canby&state=&zipcode=&search=++Search++
).

But Yahoo! Maps ( http://maps.yahoo.com/mapsch?ed=M7tNO.p_0TqT&csz=canby&country=us
), as confirmed by PlacesNamed.com (
http://maps.yahoo.com/mapsch?ed=M7tNO.p_0TqT&csz=canby&country=us ),
appears to have the correct answer: six.  There's a Canby in
California, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Oregon, and Washington.
