Hi Linda & any Shannon out in Cyberspace, The name Shannon is one of my surnames. There's been mention of Shannon's that live (lived) in Shanondale. I received all of the info on the Shannon's from a dear couple that (I'm guessing) still lives there. I thought perhaps they were a part of my Shannon's as they didn't live that far apart, but that's not the case. My John Shannon, b. 1755 in Md. was an Am Rev. War soldier that m. Jane Dunlap from Mercersburg, Pa. They had 10 children, and moved to Penns Valley in Centre Co., Pa. Later moving to Rockland, Venango Co, Pa., spending the last of their days on the farm of their son John, who had served in the War of 1812. Many are still in Pa., but there are many that moved westward into all of the states, and even other countries. If this sounds like your SHANNON'S, let me know. Dorothy (Shannon) Cote....... from Erie, Pa.
