- The earliest record I have is 7 Feb. 1731. On this date John Walters of Henrico 'for love and affection' gives Benjamin Cannon and Susanna Cannon, his daughter, 100 acres for life and then to her children. Henrico Co. VA Deeds 1706-1737, p. 335. The deed was witnessed by Charles Cannon and Abraham Childers. John Walters signed by mark. The land was part of a tract that John Walter lived on next to James Connaway. On the same day John Walters 'for love and affection'gave James Connaway and Ann Connaway, his daughter, 100 acres for life then to the children of Ann Connaway. Abraham Childers and Chalres Cannon witnessed this deed also. Both deeds were recorded on 7 Feb. 1731.
In the Nov. Court 1741, two deeds are recorded. the first is from James Conway and his wife Ann and Benjmain Cannon to Christopher Christmas. The second is from James Conway and his wife Ann and Benjamin Cannon and his wife Susannah to John robertson Sr. The deed was proved by John Thomas.
On 9 April 1749, Mary Walters, widow of John Walter, surrenders to Benjamin Cannon and Susanna the plantation devised to Mary Wlaters by her husband 30 Sept. 1734. The deed was witnessed by Jacob Robertson, William Merriman, and john Eales and recorded on the 1 May 1749.
On 1 May 1749 Benjamin Cannon of Albemarle Co. and Sussana his wife,who is sister and co-heir of John Walters, sell to Richard Cottrel of Henrico a plantation with all land in Henrico Co. devised by JohnWalters to his son John after the death of his wife. The land was on the south side of East branch. Because John Walters Jr. died without issue and Mary surrendered her life estate, the plantation descended to Benjamain Cannon and susanna Cannon in right of the wife, and to James Conway and Anne his wife in right of the wife, co-heirs andsisters of John Walters, Jr. Benjmain Cannon and Sussanah sold their 1/2 part of the land to Cottrel. Winesses were Jacob Robertson, William Merriman, John Eales. both Benjmain and Sussana signed by mark. the deed was recorded 1 May 1749.
On 30 Oct. 1756, Benjamin Cannon, planter, grants to Jeremiah Cannon, both of Cumberland Co., for 20 lbs., 100 acres on the south side of Deep Run, being the same 100 acres given by deed of gift from John Walters, adjacent James Conway. (This is the same land in which John Walters gave Benjamin a life estate, then to the issue of Sussanah)
