John,
I don't have anything as yet showing on this 1200 list of Cannon;s
descending from Thomas Cannon, b ca 1640 England who came to MD
before 1670 and was in Baltimore, MD by 1695. Between 1722 and 1725, his
grandson James, b 1695, MD and wife, Mary Boren, b. 1695, Swan Creek,
Baltimore Co, MD , were in Of (?), Newberry Co, SC where their son
James(2) was born 12/8/1725. Several of these Cannon families travel
between Md, Mecklenburg
Co, NC, Newberry, SC and Va. Then, some go to Ga, KT, Ill, Mo., TX, ARK,
AR, MS, IN,....
James(2) b. 1725 m. Margaret ALexander, b. 1729 Hartford, MD.
They had another son John b. 1727, Of, Newberry Co, SC. m.. Martha
Alexander, b. 1733/34, Coch (?), PA. John & Martha had a son Samuel, b.
ca. 1750. Newberry, SC., m. Lydia Pennington, b. ca 1750, Newberry Co., SC.
Well, from this point it gets confusing but from Samuel, born
1750 ,
there is listed as son of John Nick Cannon, b. 1/24/1842, Graves Kentucky,
and
Harriet C. Ross, b. 12/16/1850, TN, ....(11th child)..Moody Cannon, b.
12/1891,
CAMPBELL, Hunt, TX, with sp. Jewell Miller, b. 1896, CAMPBELL,. Hunt, TX
and (12th child)..W. G. Cannon b. 1892, CAMPBELL, Hunt, TX
This chart also lists a Robert Cannon, b. 3/22/1822 Hawk Point,
Lincoln, Missouri, son of Samuel Cannon, b. 1786, Robertson, TN, sp.
Temperance
Stewart, b. 1793 Wilkes Co, Ga. with brothers and sisters Mary, Bluford,
James
Stewart, Jane, John, Elizabeth, Samuel Perry, Lydia, William Coates, Isaac
Newton, and Rachel and all their children covering states of Mo.,
(mostly),
SC, Kentucky, Ill, Nebraska, Ga., NY, and TN.
Is any of this your line? Hope it helps someone out there!
Joye

I am trying to find out something about this gent who married my aunt
Ardella Cannon who was the oldest daughter of Robert Lee Cannon and Emma
Theodocia [Fite] Cannon. Ed Lee was born in 1883 and died in 1958. I
think
that they were married in either Shackelford, Callahan, Eastland or
Stephens
County Texas. Robert L had moved to Texas from NC in 1907 and
settled in
Moran, Shackelford County, Texas. I have seen some discussions/questions
about some Cannons in Cisco Texas which is in Eastland County some 20
miles
from Moran. I also remember something about Ed Lee visiting
relatives in
Arkansas but nothing specific.
Would like to find out something since the names were the same.
Thanks
John Sammons
