I have been looking for the family of Jane Cannon for years and think there
might be a connection to John O. Cannon (b 9 Sep 1803 in NC--d 1846 in Bradley
Co. TN). John married Caroline Nelson in 1829. She died in 1839 and he
married his second wife, Mahala Torbett 1 Oct 1840.
The record shows that John served in the Tennessee House 22nd General
Assembly 1837-1839, and was a Democrat. He was elected Judge of the 3rd Judicial
Circuit in 1844 and served until his death in 1846.

Carol, I do not think I know the family that you are looking but your
post peaks my interest. My husband's gggrandmother was Martha Jane
Cannon married c1848 Stephen Adkerson in Rockingham County, NC. The
marriage of my husband's ggrandfather list his mother as Jane. My
husband is also off the Nelson line.
