I am still trying to determine the parents of my gg grandfather, James L. Cannon, who
according to the 1850 census in Gibson County, Tennessee, was born in Tennessee circa
1815. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I, too, am researching the Cannons. My branch, so far is in Kentucky in the
1700's, but I am ready to go beyond Charles Cannon. If I go online at
Samford, how do I access the Cannon Files? This is the first that I have
heard about them and they sound very interesting.
Thanks,
Virginia Cannon Clay

Hello Ann,
I'm the source of the yDNA for Zachariah. I'm very certain that he is in my
paternal great grandfather. I am Benjamin Bartlett Cannon the fifth.. I go
by Bart.
We spoke on the phone several times back in around 1998. I believe it was
you who first told me about the Cannon Files at Samford University. I have
recommended to several Cannon researchers including Gary Blakely that they
should completely copy the folder. As far as I know, no one has.
Last year a very diligent Zachariah researcher produced a professional
quality history of the early history of Zachariah. I will try to locate
his e-mails and forward them to you.
The reason we have had so much trouble with Zachariah is that when his
family moved to North Carolina, they went by the name of Kennon. I should
have tried that in my own research when I hit the "brick wall".
Bart
