• His father, Marsena Cannon, is documented in the 1850 Woodruff company but the rest of the family appear with him in Salt Lake at the time of the 1850 federal census (enumerated early 1851), so it is assumed that they all traveled with him. 

  His birth date is confirmed by Salt Lake 17th Ward records at the time of a rebaptism on 7 March 1857.
