This would be my first post here. Hope someone can help me fill in the gaps.
My Cannon line is as follows:
John Wesley Cannon Sr. no birth date, maybe born Kansas married an Elvia
Stites, no date. She was possibly born in Linn Kansas, 1843.
John Wesley Cannon Jr born June 8,1880,La Cygne, Linn County, Kansas. Died,
Mar 23,1943,Clarksville, Pike County, Missouri, buried Greenwood Cemetery,
Clarksville, Missouri, Married Elizabeth Edith Bruce, born July 1, 1880, in

Nov 23, 1927,Kansas City, Kansas died Aug 18, 1981 Morton, Illinois. John,
Joanne, Jordena are still living.
I have hit a brick wall. I can find nothing on the first John Wesley or his
wife Elvia Stites. I have been searching for over 4 years now with no
results. I took a break from it for the last 6 months or so because i
couldnt stand the disapointment of finding nothing anymore. I am ready to
tackle this again. Any help on this line would be greatly welcomed. Thanks
so much, Lynne (Cannon) Drost

I am still searching for my husband's biological father, Stanley Bryan
Cannon Jr.. He would be in his 60's, I am thinking. I think he father was
Stanley Bryan Cannon that was married to Thelma Fitch that are buried in
Urich Missouri. But not sure, just know that Stanley Jr. did live in
Missouri in 1966.
