I'm new to the list and the only connection I have to Madison Co., that I know of, is the Clannin's found in this cemetery. I cannot connect them to any of my ancestors, and that would be unusual since there are very few Clanin, Clannin found in the U. S. and all of them so far are descended from one Clanin. The name had been spelled in many ways, as happens to a lot of names. If someone has any information on them, I would appreciate corresponding with them. Respectifully, James A.
