    1. [ALCOFFEE] John David Cannon, b 1865 AL, d 1935, AL>GA>AL
    2. My grandfather was John David Cannon, in some documents referred to as J. D. or John D. He was born in Feb 1865 in Alabama and died in 1935, probably in Coffee Co., Alabama, but possibly in Muscogee Co., Georgia. Apparently, he had two wives. The first was Elizabeth, born Apr 1870, Alabama. They had three daughters: Minnie, born Sep 1890, Pearllie, born Aug 1846, and Liddie, born 1902. Their descendants may still be in Coffee County. The second wife was Annie Mae Tucker, my grandmother, born May 1884, Alabama, died June 1947 at Columbus, Georgia. They had two daughters: Agnes Lela Cannon, born Sep 1910, died Oct 1990, and younger sister Metha, born about 1920. Metha had several children, probably still living. In the 1900 census, GF Cannon was enumerated in Precinct 11, Simmons Mill, Coffee Co., Alabama. Simmons Mill was also called Stanley Mill and was located just north of Kinston. In the 1910 census, he was in Precinct 15, Deanville, Coffee Co., Alabama. Deanville is now named Jack and is in north Coffee Co. In the 1920 census, he was in Columbus, Georgia, on River Road, with wife Annie and daughter Agnes. >From talking to older people in Jack, Alabama, I gather that the children of Elizabeth may have settled around Elba, Alabama. I can use any help finding the parents of John David and his wives. And anything on his children. :-) I am the son of Agnes, so I can handle that part! :-) All responses will be appreciated. Especially those from Cannon descendants around Elba and Jack! Good luck on your searches, Perry D. Walker Decatur, Alabama
