Thanks to everyone who sent me things on Constantine Cannon. At this time I
have found there are at least two Constantine CANNONs. One died 1777 the
other is on the 1800 DE census.
Some more on my families.

One step always seems to bring up more guestion. Was there more than one
William CLARKSON or did he marry twice?
