I am looking for anyone with information about Jesse CANNON, supposed
Revolutionary War soldier, who was in Hancock County, GA in the 1810s. I think
he was supposed to be a soldier from VA or NC.
The "History of Jasper County, GA" says that Jesse Cannon married Frances
HARDESTY and that they had a daughter Mary "Comfort" CANNON.Comfort married
John CUNARD in Hancock County, GA in 1815.

I cannot find any records to substantiate that Jesse CANNON married Frances
HARDESTY or that they had a daughter Comfort. Was Jesse really a soldier? I
find one Jesse CANNON in the Navy, but he died childless in 1792.

Can anyone shed any light on the CANNONS of Hancock County, GA or on Jesse
CANNON himself?
Thanks,
Nancy Mann
