Hi Donna,
Thank you for your message. I don't even know if my Rachel really existed. She was
in notes made by my uncle concerning what he knew about my great grandfather's family.
If she were a daughter of James Cannon & Sarah Reed she would have been born in the
late 1700s. I also only suspect that I am descended from James Cannon and Sarah Reed.
This James Cannon was born in 1739 and was a uncle of your James Cannon who married Rachel
Stark. A good report on this family can be found in
http://dutchforkchapter.org/html/cannon_john.html. It could be that we are related.

Hi Doug,
Sorry to be so long in responding to your request. Do you know when
the Rachel Cannon you found was born? My ancestor James Cannon
(1762-1842) married Rachel Stark (1768-1831). One of their children
was named Rachel Cannon (1804-1876). and they also had a
granddaughter Rachel Stark Cannon (1831 --??), This Rachel also had a
brother named James but I don't know whom he married. I find it all
rather confusing but maybe someone else who receives this can clarify
it. Maybe we're related. . . . . . ..

I find the name Rachel Cannon in my family notes. I don't know where
she was
located in the Cannon family. Was she a daughter of James Cannon and
Sarah Reed
? Any and all help will be appreciated.
