According to a descendant of Hillary CASON that I have been in contact with, John CASON was a grandson of James and Ann CASON and of Edward and Sarah (Dawley) CANNON. By the way, my G-Grandmother, Rachel Viola ADAMS's paternal grandparents were Wyriott Cason ADAMS (it should be noted that John CASON had a son, Wyriott CASON who was named for Wyriott ORMAND) and Martha Ann HALL. Rachel ADAMS's maternal grandparents were Wiley FORDHAM and Lucretia CANNON. Lucretia's grandfather was Nathaniel CANNON. Nathaniel's R.S. pension application states, "And in answers to certain interrogations prescribed by the War Department the said applicant further states, That he was born as near as he can recollect in the year 1763(?) in the State of South Carolina. That he has no record of his age that he resided in the said State until he removed to the State of Georgia, in which last named State he lives at the present time." However, there are Pitt records of a Nathaniel CANNON: 1775 | Nathaniel Cannon (1774) => Solomon Sutton | - A; £5. Adj.: Benjamin Blunt. Wit.: William Whitfield, Sampson Powel | Bk.F-194 21 Jul 1777 | John Cannon => Thomas Cannon | 271 A; £40. Former owner: Abraham Duncan (Pat. 1752).

Former owners: Anthony Mills, (Pat.), Samuel Smith (D). Wit.: Caleb Cannon | Bk.H-117 15 May 1779 | Nathaniel Cannon => Pearson Tuten | 150 A; £400. | Bk.H-120 This Nathaniel is also found in the 1790 Pitt Census. I cannot conclude that the Pitt Co. Nathaniel is my Nathaniel CANNON, especially given his R.S. pension application statement. However, given that my ADAMS and WATKINS lines are found in Pitt, and given my ADAMS and WATKINS relationship to the CASONs, and given that the CASONs comingle with at least one line of the DANIELs of Pitt, the circumstantial evidence looks very interesting to me. To add fuel to the fire, prior to my G-Grandfather (Francis Marion DANIEL) marrying Rachel ADAMS, he was married to Sally DIXON. This DIXON line also traces back to Pitt. Sally DIXON and Rachel ADAMS were 1st cousins. Their grandmother was Lucretia CANNON. Sure looks to me like I have a lot of Pitt County family.

Paul, RE: According to a descendant of Hillary CASON that I have been in contact with, John CASON was a grandson of James and Ann CASON and of Edward and Sarah (Dawley) CANNON. That is what I have. Hillary, John, Henry, William, Cannon CASON and the rest of these children of William CASON and Jane Anne CANNON were the g/c of Edward CANNON and Sarah DAULEY and James CANNON, Jr. and Judith Ann FLEMING. What did I say? That FLEMING interests me too, because I have a FLEMING tied to my RAMSEY bunch over in the Augusta County, VA area. These FLEMINGS were from Scotland - Dr. William FLEMING (1727-1795) married Nancy Ann CHRISTIAN and he was the son of LORD FLEMING OF HUGIL b: 1700 in England and DORTHEA SATTERWAITE b: 1702. BTW, my uncle, Russell Daniel RICHTER, Sr. (1882-1944) married Burma ADAMS in 1909 in Morgan County, GA. She was the d/o a George W.ADAMS (1850-1912) and his wife, Elizabeth, of Harwell's District, Morgan County, GA and I cannot find anything on them but they had a son named, Paul ADAMS born ABT 1900 and who died in 1925 in Morgan County, GA. Burma and Russ, Sr. had one son, Russ, Jr. (1912-1980), who moved to Dallas, TX and died out there in 1980. Russ Jr. married a Thelma M. (1905-1982) who died in Meriwether County, GA. I think this was George's parents and his wife may have been a PRYOR because the name, Florida, was a PRYOR name. . <<< Adams, William E. married Russell, Mrs. Martha on August 14 1836 <<< 1900 Census, Morgan County, GA Harwells District, MD 1463, Household 103 ADAMS, George W., head, white, male, May 1850, age 50,M, 15, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA, farmer ADAMS, Lizzie, wife, white, female, Apr 1859, age 41, M, 15, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Burma, daughter, white, female, Jan 1886, age 14, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Grannie (?), daughter, female, May 1887, age 13, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA 1920 Morgan County GA Census, Harwells District, household #162 ADAMS, Elizabeth, head, female, white, age 60, widow, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Lillian, daughter, white, female, age 30, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Florida E., daughter, white, female, age 22, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Percy, son, white, male, age 19, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Paul, son, white, male, age 19, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Ben, son, white, male, age 17, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA John R.
