Hi,
I am looking for information about Francis Marion Cannon who was born about 1842 in AL and
I believe died in Walker Co. AL. He is the son of William Thomas Cannon and Mary
Elizabeth Johnson. He married Irenna Earnest. He basically disappears from the census
records after 1860.
I found one genealogical site that said that his wife "Irene" had a second
marriage to Benjamin Blanton in 1862. I am starting to think that Frank may have died in
the early 1860s. It's possible that their son, John Marion Cannon, was not welcomed
by Irene's new husband and that is why he is shown living with other families working
as a servant as young as 9 years old in the 1870 and 1880 census.
Can anyone help me confirm when he died and where he is buried? Was his son John Marion
abandoned?
Thank you!!!
