Cannon Family Papers circa 1839-1951

http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/findingaids/mc00445

Cannon family of Marion, McDowell County, North Carolina. Family members include William F. Cannon, Peter F. Cannon, and Julius A. Cannon. The 1870, 1880, 1900, and 1910 United States censuses all list a Cannon family in McDowell County, and it is possible that it is the one this material corresponds to. The Cannon Family Papers contain account books, a scrapbook, papers from the North Carolina Agricultural Extension Service, tax records, a mathematics practice notebook, an owner's manual for a mower, and clippings of advertisements. The materials belonged to William F. Cannon, Peter F. Cannon, Julius A. Cannon, and other members of the Cannon family. They range in date from approximately 1839 to 1951.
