Story on this family is,
(this is not research done by me)
Martin FINCANNON, b. in Holland, came to America ca1760, Randolph Co., NC.
Martin had a son, John, also born in Holland who came to Amercia with his
dad.
During the Revolutionary War John was taken prisoner by the Tories but
escaped at the Battle of Cowpens and joined the Amercian forces, serving with
them until after the Battle of Guilford Courthouse.
John Fincannon is the father of William.
Four of Williams sons, Elijah, John, Thomas and Athan dropped the "Fin" when
they moved to Cherokee Co., Al., during the years 1836-1848.
