CANNON, ARCENAUX, CROSSEN/CROSSAN & SLAUGHTER/SLOTTER/SLATER & LITTLE, WEBER, CASTILLO, LIGHTENER, BULNEZ FAMILIES
of
This CANNON family and
related lines are not my direct relatives, but I often receive requests for
information from their descendants, so I am posting this in order to make
available what information I do have on these lines—which isn’t much.
This Cannon line preceded
mine to the area and was well-established by the time Martin Ansil CANNON, Sr.
and his brother John (my ancestors) arrived in Ascension Parish,
From the Baton Rouge Diocese Catholic Church Records (v, pg # given below):
(NOTE: spellings vary due to Spanish and French influence in
record-keeping and literacy of registrar, but they are as they appear in the
records).
