Thank you for that information. Do you have a list of
Joseph's and Eliza's children? If they had any sons,
they may be, or have a link to the father of my
g-grandfather Frank D. b:1876. Like I mentioned in
earlier posts, it's indicated in the 1900 census that
Frank's father was born in TX, married in TN and Frank
was born in AR. However, the 1910 census indicates
that both his parents were born and married in AR. So,
if Joseph and Eliza had any male children circa 1850
in either Texas or Arkansas, that may be the missing
link I'm looking for. Thank you for your info.

I have a Joseph Cannon and Eliza A Cannon..both born
in the 1820s. Joseph
and Eliza married on the same day 12 Apr 1849 Union
Co AR. In the marriage
records , his last name is Cannons but hers is
Cannon. I believe they were
siblings. Joseph m. Synthia Norman and Eliza A.
married my husband's many great
grandfather Gilbert M.C .Wise. (His name is
misspelled on the marriage record but
its defintely him). Gilbert and Eliza A . lived in
Webster Parish or
Claiborne Parish LA. The Wise family came there from
Copiah Co MS.
I have no clue where Joseph Cannon lived. I know
that they were married in
the home of Freeman Norman of Union Co AR. He has to
be some relation to
Synthia Norman. There seems to have been other
Normans there too at one time.
I have been unable to find Joseph and Synthia
Cannon on any census at all.
I know there was a Robert Cannon in 1840 Webster
Parish LA. Perhaps this is
the father of Joseph and my Eliza A. I have tried to
track this Joseph because
I have had no luck with my Eliza. I know she
married Gilbert Wise...after
his death in mid 1860s, she left the "country" with
her children ...did not make
a claim for in their grandfather's will...she died
by 1870 census. ...Two of
her children are back in LA in that census with
their uncle Joseph Wise.
Where Eliza went after her husband died is a
mystery. If Joseph was her brother
, then perhaps she went to her family
somewhere.....if I could just find
Joseph and Synthia Norman Cannon perhaps I could
find more about her. Email me if
you like..
