I think this is all interesting and I have not been concentrating on all of
the messages but someone a day or two ago mentioned their Cannon family in
Gibson Co, TN. Their Cannon line is not my Cannon line but my Grandfather
Cannon lived in Gibson County where I was born and some of the Ward family
descendants that my husband belongs too also live in Gibson County! I do
hope I can get some info on the Ward line although I am not actively
searching right now. Pat

Humm,
I think our ancestors planned on confusing us all!!
I have Cannon's back to: Lafayette A. Cannon who married Clarkie?
Layfette was bn 1824 in Early, GA. He m. Clarkie (Cannon?). There child
was Marlin LaFayette Cannon bn Jan 1853; Lafayette was bn 1853 in Early,
Ga. He m. Mary Julia NIX.
Does anyone else come down this line????
Bev
ok here is my line that I am trying to get information. Again this is
pretty limited as I just found most of this 2 nights ago....
My grandfather is: William Samuel Payton Ward son of William Hicks Ward
and Olivia Mary Cannon.
William H. Ward is the son of Jasper Ward and Alma Lockeby.
I do not have anything past Jasper. I have his mother who was a widow at
what seems to be a pretty young age.
Olivia Mary Cannon is the daughter of John L. Cannon and Hannah
Stanberry.
All are from North Carolina Henderson area.

I was able to find a little info on the Wards recently. I am related to
the Fincannon Charlie but through a different link then your Ward. I will
have to try to dig a little and see the connection. I do not have a lot
to go on yet.
Pat, We might have a connection through the Wards. I will post more as
I find out. Thank you for any help thus far! Shellie
