Anne, Could you explain about your Thomas Shannon and Elizabeth Taylor. I have a Thomas Shannon b. around 1720, I think because he had a patent to buy land from Wm Penn or William Penn's son, in 1740, so must have been a young man by 1740. We are desperately searching for our Thomas Shannon. He had 3 children that we know of, but probably more. We have; Samuel, Joseph and Mary. Joseph is in the 1790 York Co. PA census along with his sister Mary's husband, Henry Cowley. It is misspelled in the census as Coollly. Would you have any advice as to what or how to find them. Thanks, Bobbie >From: [email protected] >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [SHANNON-L] Re: SHANNON-D Digest V99 #202 >Date: Mon, 20 Sep 1999 20:56:32 EDT > >In a message dated 9/20/99 4:28:03 AM Central Daylight Time, >[email protected] writes: > > > [email protected] >Bonnie, >If memory serves and I do well to remember yesterday, this sound like >something that came out of one of the DAR Volumes that you find in the >library.
