Cannon Researchers,
I have a book that was originally published in 1943 called HAPPY
HERITAGE Genealogies of Seven Southern Families. It was written by Landon
Lee Cannon ( Mrs. R. B.Cannon) In this book she discusses "Colonial" Daniel
Cannon of Charleston, SC. The names of his children by Martha Winn are
given as:
Henry Cannon (one of Marion's Men in the Revolution),
Sarah (Sally) Cannon
Martha Cannon
George Cannon
Jane Cannon
John Cannon
Elizabeth Cannon
The names of his children by Mary Doughty are given as:
John Cannon
Daniel Cannon.
Mrs. Landon Lee Cannon continues with some of the above children's
genealogy. I know this work isn't completely accurate. She has Elizabeth
Cannon the mother of all of Hopson Pinckney's children.
My line is Sarah (Sally) Cannon (daughter of Daniel Cannon) but
Elizabeth (daughter of Daniel Cannon) was the first wife of my fifth great
grandfather, Hopson Pinckney, Elizabeth's only child to my knowledge, was
Anna Maria Pinckney, half sister to my Mary Elizabeth Pinckney ( Hopson
Pinckney's daughter by his third wife). Mary Elizabeth Pinckney married
Daniel Cannon Edwards, the grandson of Sarah Cannon and great grandson of
Daniel Cannon and second cousin to Anna Maria Pinckney- Mary Elizabeth
Pinckney's half-sister.
What I would like to find are other researchers working on this line or
who may have knowledge of these other Cannon children.
Below is the link to Daniel Cannon's Will.
