I am still trying the identify the parents of my gg grandfather, James L. CANNON, who was
shown in the Gibson County, Tennessee census in 1850. The census listed him as 35 years
old and born in Tennessee. This is my big "brick wall." Any help would be
immensely appreciated.

Subject: [CANNON] James Cannon of Spartanburg, SC born abt. 1787
A James Cannon is in the census for Spartanburg, SC with his wife, Elizabeth and
children; George, b. about 1827; Harriet, b. about 1830; (James) Berry, b. about 1837;
Thomas, b. about 1841.
My line is through James Berry Cannon who married Myra Susan Hardin in 1867.
I suspect that this family descends from Ellis Cannon, that James the father, may have
been "James George Cannon", the brothers MAY BE: Thomas Huffman Cannon, and
George Ellis Cannon, and that there may be other siblings in the family.
Are there any of you out there on the "list" who have information about these
Cannons and would share it?
Many, many thanks in advance,'
Roberta
