Hi Tommie, Recently I came across some records that show 7 children in Joseph & Mary's family, and would like your thoughts on it. John Peeling,Jr shows Anna (shown in Larramore Bible), Granville, Lavinia & Alexander. http://genforum.familytreemaker.com/shannon/messages/91.html This site shows 4 children:Franklin P.,(Col. Shannon's older brother was a Joseph Franklin Shannon),Lavinia, Granville B., and Alexander. http://home.earthlink.net/ ~tmclean/PickensDBndx/dat18.htm and finally, Bonnie Mae Webber Hill in her LDS Individual Record(FSAF v4.19)shows Isaac,Granville B.,Jemima,Lavinia&Alexander. Let me know what you think about this. Kind Regards Always, & A Happy New Year. Mike
