I am not sure how Ancestry is putting the records online, but it may be in the order that the application was approved. So any that are in recent years may not be up yet. Don't know that for a fact, just a guess. Joyce

The 177 Shannon listings must not be complete. I went through the 145 volumes and I know of 2 DAR established lines on Robert Shannon (1739-1815 Wilson Co., Tennessee) not listed. Joyce, many thanks for all the up to date information and new sources. JJSJR

Excuse me--I should have said in Nicholas County, Kentucky. The preacher Samuel Shannon was actually in Kentucky early and seemed to own a lot of property. Mary Daniel W.

There were two Samuel Shannons in Nicholas County (one before that in Shelby County) around 1840-50-60. One was a well-known Presbyterian preacher; the other from North Carolina. That is all I know so far. My Margaret Shannon's father was a Samuel Shannon.

I am copying your letter and my response to rootweb because my response contains a synopsis of info that may be of interest to other genealogists..... >Dear Mike: > When working on the Shannon's of KY please keep an eye open for what >we think are 4 brothers in the same area, Samuel, William Perry, >Nathan & Jesse.

I >usually try to get & send mail at the same time. I will keep you posted I have been looking for this group of names, however, have a great incongruency. I know that in the 1830 Indiana census, there were no Shannon's in Vermillion County. Samuel Shannon married Mahala Payton in 1835 in Fayette County (Connersville Indiana). At that time, he was age 17-18 and she was age14-15. By the 1840 Census, Samuel and Mahala (Vermillion twnshp) were re-located in Vermillion Co, as was John Shannon (HELT twnshp). Question: Did the brothers immigrate after 1840? OR did the brothers originally immigrate in and around Fayette Co. In 1830, there were no Shannon's in or around Vermillion Co. Closest Shannon families were in Hendricks Co. (John C., Samuel, and William). There were six Shannon families around Fayette Co. (In Rush Co.: Alexander and Henry, In Union Co.:John and Samuel, and in Decatur Co.: James and John F.). Now if we assume that the Payton Family was already established in Indiana in 1830, prior to the 1835 marriage of Samuel and Mahala, I find that there are no Payton families in Hendricks Co. in 1830. However, there are two Payton's located in counties adjacent to Hendricks Co. (G.W. in Montgomery Co., Jacob in Morgan Co.). I find five (5) Payton families (Abraham, Jacob, Samuel, Samuel, and Stephan) in Fayette Co. And in adjacent counties, several other Payton/Peyton families ( Charles Payton in Wayne, and WIlliam, Samuel, and John Peyton in Union Co.). Among the 1830 Payton/Peyton families, there are four families that had daughters in the age 5 to 10 range, i.e. Stephan and Samuel Payton (Fayette Co.) and Joh and Samuel Peyton (Union Co.). This is as far as I have gotten.......... More clues, please Mike

Date: 09/07/1999 5:34:30 PM Central Daylight Time From: [email protected] (Stanly or Linda Widau) Sender: [email protected] To: [email protected] I just found out today that my Earl C Shannon was son of George M Shannon, son of David Armstrong Shannon, son of Joseph Shannon (PA), and son of Thomas Shannon (PA). Is this the Thomas Shannon consort Agnes Shannon? I am interested. I have a copy of David A's will. Can you help out. Linda

I've looked at the Shannon-Crow marriage before--turns out not to be my end of the Shannons--but I've recently discovered an ancestor named Anna Crow (sic), born ca. 1780 in VA, who ends up marrying a James Norris in TN. Do you know the Shannon-Crow group well enough to know if there was a daughter by that name and general birthplace? Thanks. Linda >>> "Pete Hamilton" <[email protected]> 09/04/99 04:24PM >>> Bonnie --- I suspect that "Agnes Shannon, consort of Thomas Shannon" was Agnes Crowe Shannon. She was the daughter of William Crowe and his wife, Anna Shannon. Anna Shannon was the daughter mentioned in the 1737 will of Thomas Shannon of Lancaster Co, PA.

the 10day free info from Ancestry is the latest 143 DAR books for your use. I checked & there are 170 SHANNON entries.......... <A HREF="http://www.ancestry.com/ancestry/search/3174.htm">Ancestry.com - Ancestry Genealogy Library</A> or http://www.ancestry.com/ancestry/search/3174.htm

I don't know if this could help anyone, but I found a book that apparently my dad had sent away for. It's dated 1992. It lists the Shannons' addresses all over the world. The book is entitled "The Who's Who of Shannons around the World." I would be glad to do any look-ups if anyone wants to try to send a letter to anyone. Kathy Shannon Braun [email protected]

Hi List I have 2 scraps of paper I found in my files with the following written on them and don't know which Thomas or Agnes they refer to. This was prior to my documentation training. "Thomas Shannon, Capt. Va Middle New River Montgomery Co. Troops in the Rev. War" 12 Nov 1841" "Agnes Shannon, Consort of Thomas Shannon, b 17 Jun 1760, d 13 Oct 1823. 'She was an acceptable member of the Presbyterian Church many Years' ". Can anyone give me a hint, please? And possibly tell me where I got this info? TIA Bonnie in Idaho
