Hi Cutler, Thank you for the answer. Between the date I posted question and your answer,
I found all of that info. Ebemezer Cann amd Sarah Martha M. Nelson were married in 1861
and had one son, John William Cann. She then married my Great grandfather, Richard
Johnathan Whitten in Arkansas in 1872. The famly story was John William was named after
his father and I searched for years for that name until I found a little book in the
Clayton Library in Houston that contained the marriage date for Ebenezer Cann and Sarah
Martha Nelson. That just shows you should not believe family stories.until you have
proof. LOL
