Bobbie, When I first started my research years ago, I was fortunate to find two cousins I didn't know I had. They both gave a lot of material that would've taken years on my own to get. I was able to find much more with their help, and was blessed with two new cousins that I felt I had known all my life. Louise Dedman sent me 20 page letters with research, proofs and conclusions that are invaluable. I met her on one of my trips and regarded her as a favorite aunt I had known all my life. Thanks to Joyce Shannon Bridges, they are now on line for everyone to use, Tommie Taylor helped me find material on my Gr-Grandfather Shannon and his parents. They were very gracious, and believed in sharing and spreading the information around to those interested in preserving our heritage. They have inspired me to do the same. I think I get more satisfaction out of doing that, than I do researching. Louise had been researching since the year I was born, 1939. Some time after my visit I learned she had been burgled three times. She had her research in Franklin,Tnn, in the family home, but lived in town. The third time they scattered her papers all over and set fire to the place. What a horrible thing to do! I can relate to how your husband feels and of course, I identify with you. I get a little panicky when I let it pile up on me. I hope someday soon we can find that we are family. Mike

Bobbie, I sent you the chart Thursday. When I got home, I took a look at it and realized it was a mixed up mess, so I sent you another. The one with the 2 on it near my return address is the complete and correct chart. Mike

Dawn, I think I responded to this, but just in case, this isn't my line. It could be yours is from one of Thomas' other brothers. I don't have data on them. Sorry, Mike

Russ, Original notes are below. Just wanted to give you some dates I acquired when I lived in Kentucky and went to Jefferson County, IN to look for George Shannon and Eliza Gordon. You may already have these by now. They are buried in the Bethel Cemetery, Hanover Twnship, Jefferson County, IN. Found their marriage in the courthouse to be May 4, 1831, Jefferson Co., IN As George & Eliza were having children in 1838, I doubt he is the same George that married Phoebe Lee. In Memory of George Shannon Sen born March 1759 and departed this life Dec 5, 1840 aged 81 years and near 9 months In Memory of Ann, Consort of George Shannon who departed this life Sept 9, 1847 aged 83 yrs, 4 ms, 7 dys John 1888-1892 Markie 1893-1896 SHANNON In Memory of infant son of George & Elizabeth Shannon b 1/16/1838 d 2/25/1838 40 days Infant daughter of George & Elizabeth Shannon July 22, 1852 Aug 4, 1852 George Shannon Sen (don't know why this says sen also) b 2/7/1788 d 9/5/1863 aged 75 yrs, 6 mos, 28 dys Elizabeth Gordon wife of George b 10/8/1809 d 1/22/1872 George Shannon Walker 12/4/1872 9/15/1879 Hester S Walker 1841-1921 George W Walker 9/25/1836 12/8/1911 James McMillan Aug 14, 1835 aged 7 John McMillan d 11/2/1846 67 years Mary consort of John b 9/7/1790 d 9/21/1855 Hope this helps someone, Widget At 03:19 PM 4/16/01 -0400, you wrote: >Becky, > >George Shannon and his wife Ann Reid, both originally >of Lancaster Co.

HI, I will give you my line so far. William and Katherine Shannon (mid 1700's). Their son: Andrew m. Elizabeth Shannon. Their son: Andrew b. 1837 m. Charity (Embree) Shannon. Their son: Joseph P. Shannon b. 12-28-1876 m. Elizabeth (Clowers) Shannon Joseph P. Shannon and Elizabeth's daughter, Vadie Shannon Fairchild, is my great grandmother. I do not know the county. I think it might be White, Morgan or Roane. Would appreciate any help! Thank-you..... Dawn Burkhalter Centerville, Ohio

Does anyone know the wife of John Shannon (from VA) father of Jeremiah Shannon (wife Elizabeth Bryant) who settled in Washington Co. Arkansas. Do they connect in anyway with Samuel Shannon (Eigness) of Tennessee?

My parents live in Shawnee and my brother in Wapak. Small world. I am searching for Shannon's that lived in TN. Dawn

Are you in Auglaize County yourself?? Dawn

Hi List, Does anyone know an email address for Doneva Shepard? I was researching the archives tonight and I believe we may have a connection but her email bounced. Thanks, Anne Harper

Bobbie, In looking back at Rita's file, Two of Robert's sons are Wm. & My Thomas, and of course there is Andrew and I think the other brother was Robert. I don't really have anything on anyone but Thomas as I had to quit research when my workload became heavy. I'll have a chart in the mail to you tomorrow. We were sorta wet here for a few days. Mike

Be glad to: Adams/York Co. PA 1740 to 1797 documented. Thomas Shannon b. around 1720-23 in order to have money for 1740 patent. wife, Mary, is in the 1797 will of Thomas Shannon, as are his last three children, Joseph inheriting homestead and 300 acres, Samuel inheriting a few pence, and Mary with her husband, Henry Cowley, inheriting the adjacent house and land on which they now live. There is also a young Thomas Shannon, his grandson, living with Mary and Henry for which he gives a sum to be divided until he comes of age, and Henry is to divide it up to him. In the years between I have lots of tax reports and inhabitants lists, etc, but no other mention of names on these. I would imagine he would be a son of Andrew Shannon, rather than a grandson. Wouldn't you? Thanks for any help. It is exciting to think this may be the right line. Really appreciate your help.

From what I saw of them, only what was on your site, it looked mostly like Thomas and Agnes Shannon's family.

Bobbie, I haven't done any research on them, so I couldn't say. If I had some names, I could determine if their children are there. Most of the sheeets are not that early and they usually stop just short of the emigrant. Mike
