Bobbie, No, I've never found a ship's list or passenger list showing our Shannons arriving. I have Thomas, son of Thomas who m. Eigness, going down onto Rockfish River(this is now in Nelson Co.,Va.) with Samuel &Jean Reid Shannon. He died there unwed. John,son of Thoomas & Eigness, had a son, Thomas who m. Polly Reid. John also had a son George m. Ann Reid and had Thomas who m.Elizabeth Spear Now my ancestor was Samuel, a brother to the above John. He had Capt. Thomas who m.Agnes Crow and had Thomas Jr. who m. Juliet Allen(whose descendants still live at "Poplar Hill" Va. My Samuel had George who m. Mary Mcknight and had Thomas G. Moving ahead a generation we have my Samuel's son Joseph who m. Mary Billingsly.Their son Alexander (for whom my Gr-Grandfather was named) had a son Thomas who m Cynthia Denton. This is getting into the 1800's , so no point in going further as it is too late to be the Thomas you're looking for. Gerald Busby's grandfather and some others, myself included, were putting together a chart on all this. He died before it could be completed. I do have some17 pages of it I can send to you for $2 cost to print and mail, if you want. Just send me your address. Mike

Mike Do any of these Shannon familys of you'r end up in Ohio? We believe Franci & Joesph had a brother Alexander. We find them in Fatette & Putnam Co's. 1839 Fayette, 1860 Putnam.
