The book Tom is referring to is Newton and Betsey (Juett) Cannon of Scott
Co, KY written by Harold and Ellen (Andler) Cannon. Their son did a
wonderful followup to this in 2001 called "A Cannon Compilation" by DH
Cannon. It contains over 500 pages of transcribed wills, land grants,
bonds, etc from 1688 to early 1800's as issued in Sussex Co. DE and
Dorchester Co., MD. The book is competely indexed and can be found at the
Filson Club, the FDS and the DE Public Library I believe.

Joyce,
This is Tom Cannon from Georgetown, KY. Newton Cannon and his wife,
according to a book in our public library and census records, came from
Sussex County, DE circa 1792-94. My family is from the Northwest Fork
Hundred of western Sussex County, DE also. The Cannon family was pretty
prominent in that area. Three homes have the Cannon name that are
registered, there is a Cannon. DE; Woodland Ferry was once Cannon's
Ferry, and the governor of DE during the Civil War was William Cannon
from Bridgeville, DE in the same county. Just a little trivia. Newton's
home was somewhere outside
of Georgetown on a farm. I do not know if it still exists- the pictures
in the book were from the 1960s and it was just used for storing farm
equipment then.

Janice, I am in the same situation as you. I cannot remember exchanging
information with you. My line is from my gr. gr. grand mother Elvessa Cannon
Calvert, William B. and Elizabeth Cannon, William's parents were Tubman Cannon and
Elizabeth Bagwell. Elizabeth's parents were Newton Cannon and Betsy Juette
or Jouette. They lived in Georgetown, Kentucky. I believe Newton's Parentage
was from Delaware. I am still working on this. As for Tubman I have found on
the LSD from someone he was of Scottish Descent and his wife Elizabeth
Bagwell was of English descent. This is as far back as I have information on. Does
any of this sound familiar to you?
Thanks, Joyce
Joyce, Have we corresponded before? Forgive me if this is repetition....I
have CANNONs from OPD-SC circa 1790-1800.
John CANNON is my earliest known, with his kids as: Perryman, Israel, Jemima,
and Naomi. They removed to Caldwell Co., KY where all are listed in the
marriage records, including John when he remarried in 1819.
Let me know if we have or have not exchanged info, thanks,
Janice (Cannon)
Sabrina & Gary,
CANNON and BARTON are two of my lines - Cannon from my Dad and Barton
from my Mother. I do have Joseph Barton in my data base with wife Mourning,
but didn't have her last name. I have a lot of Barton data and know of
James Cannon, but can't tie him to my Cannons who were from the Laurens and
Abbeville Counties Cannons. My gg grandfather was James Cannon, b. 1797,
m. Juretta ?, of Laurens County. They had several sons and three daughters.
Pickens/Pendleton are not too far from where my Cannons lived (about 30 or
so miles).

Seeking information on Mourning CANNON who was married to Joseph BARTON (b. 1802). They lived in Pickens Co. SC. I believe she died in Texas.
Thanks!
Sabrina
Gary and Keith,
My Cannons were in Upstate SC and NE GA too. They connect to some of my other lines too in upstate SC too.
See my website at the bottom of this mail.
Also my daughter's site has some more Cannons on this same family.

Subject: [CANNON] 1850 Pickens Co SC p.444 James & John Cannon / Howell
Hello everyone,
I have been going up my family tree trying to tie in the families of the mothers. I've finally started digging into my Howell family and found a possible connection to the Cannon family. As such, I am posting this message to both lists, so please excuse the excess and if anything sounds familiar, let me know.
On the 1850 census in Pickens Co SC, a person who seems to be my ggg-grandmother, Nancy Howell (16), was living in the household of James Cannon (66) and his wife Mary (70). The next household is that of whom I assume to be James' son John Cannon (29) his wife Elizabeth 28 and there children Warren 12, John 10, James N. 7, Silas 5, and then there is an Eliza Howell (20) living in his Household.
Has anyone researching these Cannon Families seen any probate records mentioning the Howells?
Where were they in 1840?
Does anyone have a missing Howell family from that area of SC?
Family says Nancy Howell married Jordan N. Bailey in Pickens co.SC in Dec 1854, there oldest son William H. being born in March. 0n March 20, 1874, Nancy and Jordan had a son Warren Cicero born in SC. Not long after that, Nancy and Jordan must have moved down to Bartow / Gordon Co. GA to be near his sister Margaret Bailey Stone. Family says their father Louis Bailey walked all the way from SC to see visit, arriving on July 3, 1874; he was exhausted, he eat supper, went to bed, and died in his sleep. I do not know if Nancy and Jordan moved before or after his father's death. It is possible they came together.
Other Howells live in the area, but I have seen no relation.
This is all I know of the Howell family. I thought it peculiar that Nancy named a son Warren and John Cannon also had a son Warren.
Any information you think might would be helpful would be appreciated.
Keith Bailey

Hi,
I don't know anything about the Howell's but as you mention I do see a Nancy
Howell with James and Mary Cannon on the 1850 census. I don't know what if
any this relationship is. This Cannon family is my line, see my web site for
what I have on them:
http://users2.ev1.net/~blakely52/
James's son was John R.M. Cannon. John R.M. Cannon had a son, Warren R.
Cannon, who was killed at Gaines Mill in the Civil War. My great-grandfather
Warren Reece Cannon was probably named after Warren R. Cannon.

Hello Keith,
I appreciate your info regarding the Cannon's. My paternal
grandfather was John Cannon, born 1869 in WV and his father was James Cannon, born Abt
1834, probably iin (W)VA. The names fit what you had, but the dates and
locations do not. There were so many both James and John Cannons!!!!! If you run
across any info that might be my great grandfather, James Cannon, I would love
to hear from you.
I have not seen any connection in my family tree with the Howells, but
who knows what might pop up some later time. I will save your e-mail.
Good Luck on your research. Gladys (in WV.)
