I am still searching for descendants of George Cannon who was born in 1853
in (Limerick?) Ireland and moved to Quebec with his parents in 1858, and
later in 1862 to Kingston, Ontario.
It is known that George's wife Martha (last name unknown) was living in
Oakpark, Illinois in the 1920's, and that George worked out of Rochester,
New York, probably as a commercial traveller, between 1880 and 1920.
George and Martha may have had children named Mildred, Ben and Beatrice and
Donald.
It may be that George spent the last part of his life in Manitoba. He had
brothers and a sister who homesteaded there and family letters refer to his
son Donald visiting Southern Manitoba in the 1920's and to his son Donald's
death.
I have not been able to find a record of George and Martha's marriage, nor
any information about his descendants.
For a complete listing of what I know about George, Martha and George's
siblings and their descendants, please check my web page at:
