I am looking for the marriage date of my ancestors, John R. Canon and Ann T. Waring. I know that they had four sons: Robert (1832-1864); Valerius (1833-1923); John Job (1834-1910); and Edward F. (1840-1918). Their son, Robert, was my ancestor. I am also interested in knowing if John and Ann could have had any other children.
John R. Canon was a medical doctor. The Canon Family left Leon County, Florida, in 1858 and came to Polk County, Texas, along with the Beard Family and the Hamilton Family. Dr. John R. Canon bought over 600 acres of land near Chester, Texas, on the Polk/Tyler County line. Dr. John R. Canon died Sept. 15, 1868. I do not know when his wife died, but she was still alive in 1880. I assume that John R. and Ann Canon are buried in unmarked graves in a small family cemetery on their old homestead.
I would love to hear from other descendants of this couple.
