Just discovered my GGGrandfather JOSEPH W. CANNON was a Civil War
Texas
Confederate Soldier. He is listed in the SUPPLEMENT to the OFFICIAL
RECORDS of the UNION AND CONFEDERATE ARMIES. He was an officer of
Company B (Wood County Rebels) died Sept. 27, 1863.
Does anyone know of anything that may be written on this Co. B (Wood
County Rebels)?
Does anyone know anything of this JOSEPH W. CANNON (born in Ireland)?
He had a daughter named Mary Anna Cannon born (May 1861) in Texas (Bexar
County, San Antonio, Texas no birth records yet.). Need Marriage,
immigration, burial and any other information anyone may have.
Here is the list of:
Officers of Company B (Wood County Rebels) as it appeared in the
SUPPLEMENT.
John W. Wilson, Capt.,died May 25, 1862
Joseph W. Cannon, Capt., died September 27,1863
Henry Stout, 2nd Lt., dropped May 25,1862
James M. Rozell, 2nd Lt., discharged June 13, 1862
W.W. Gunter, Capt., r. November 12, 1862
Jacob Ziegler, Capt.
W.J. Sparks, 2nd Lt., to Adj.
John Huggins, 2nd Lt., died September 28,1863
John P. Brown, 2nd Lt.
{William} F. Hanson, 2nd Lt.
Maybe someone else will recognize a name.
Would be glad to hear if anyone has done any research on the Co. B (Wood
County Rebels) or on Joseph W. Cannon.
