Joshua Cannon
1802-John Cannon in Greene Co.
1814-Edward Cannon in Greene Tax Digest
1819-Joshua married Elizabeth Williamson Harris-Greene-24 June.
1820 Edward 26/45, Joshua 18/26 Greene Co. Census.
1820-1 Land Lottery Joshua got land Houston, Henry Co. Ga.
1827 Edward was dead and Joshua was probating estate
Later Joshua moved to Meriwether, then Fayette Co. Ga., and died in
Terrell Co. Ga. where his children had migrated to.
He is said to be the son of John who died 1807 Sumter Co. Ga. and Jemima
Broughton who migrated later to Monroe Co. Al., and was alone there in
1850 Mrs. John Randall-or Runnells by this time.
I have seen no proof of this, and John only named two other sons who
wound up in Greene Co. Ga. (Edward died 1827 Greene) and Monroe Co. Al.
(Nathaniel of Monroe Co Al).
In 1780 census-John had two sons, 2 dtrs.
The Broughton's and Cannon family are said to have come through Greene
Co. by wagon train, and then to Monroe Co. Al. John Henry Broughton,
brother of Jemima, stayed in Greene Co. Ga.
