"Commodore" John Cannon, the first of the Cannon name in Norwalk, was engaged in the West India trade and a busy eitizen. His son John was medicine-acquainted to some extent, and married into
a family of influence, while LeGrand, a younger son than Dr. John, was a child of promise, who after education in Paris died before maturity, John Can- non, the grandson of that name of the "Commodore," died, it is presumed, from the effects of a collision on Long Island Sound between a small vessel that he was sailing and one of the Sound steamboats.

1 Esther Mary Cannon (Mrs. Moses Craft) led in life and spirit the Norwalk young ladies of her period. She was society esteemed during her married life in Troy, and her evening twilight years were soft and beautiful. In her age she indulged in sweet mem- ories of Norwalk and delighted to visit and learn about the old home. She was the mother of Mrs. Hannibal Green and Mrs. G. Parish Ogden of Troy, and of Mrs. John B. Murray of New York city (pages 272 and 275).
2 For the family of William St. John2nd see page 332. The daughters were Mrs. Hoyt, Mrs. Sherry, Mrs. Skiddy and Mrs. Van Zandt.
Mrs. Munson Hoyt was universally known, was of sweet disposition, and much prized in society. Her husband was of genial nature and one of the business men of Norwalk. She was an intimate friend of Mrs. Gov. Clark Bissell and had no chil- dren.
Mrs. Charles Sherry, a lady of true refinement of spirit and speech, made her home a lovely spot for children and a welcome hearth to relatives and friends. Mr. Sherry was a gentleman of leisure and enjoyed intercourse with his townsmen. The children of Charles and Susan V. Sherry were Emily (Mrs. Dr. Samuel Lynes), Charles, and Susan (Mrs. Charles St. John).
Mrs. Francis Skiddy, a true Norwalk St. John woman, never, amid the gaities of Metropolitan life, forgot her native place and its interests. She graced her beautiful Fifth Avenue home and was generous outside it.
Julia, the remaining sister, Mrs. J. A. Van Zandt, was marriage associated with the old Van Zandt family of the Metropolis. The children of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Van Zandt were Peter and Sarah. Peter married Mary F. Raymond and Sarah an Allen.
3 Amelia Cannon (Mrs. Garritt Harsin Newkirk) was the mother of Mary Cannon Newkirk, or as she was universally Norwalk known, "Mrs. Jonathan Camp"4th, who died December 4, 1896. Mrs. Camp was a woman of extraordinary force. She was a true help-meet to her husband and one who brought up her children wisely. Her home was a comfort abode and the visitor was struck with the good sense of what was there seen and heard. Its hostess enjoyed music and was possessed of artistic taste (canvas- painting until past eighty), and yet was of decid- edly practical convictions.
4 Mrs. George Lockwood had several children who died young and James, Sarah and Mary who reached maturity. James married twice in the west and there resided. Mary also married in the west. Sarah married Ralph, son of Ralph and Esther An- toinette (Gregory) Lockwood. Mrs. Esther Antoi- nette Gregory Lockwood was a daughter of Captain Moses and Esther (Hoyt) Gregory.
Mrs. Moses Gregory was a daughter of Asa Hoyt, Sr., whose fine home grounds, stretched from the lot upon which stands the now unused Second Congregational Church of South Norwalk, quite around the corner of the Washington Street of to- day. Such a family comfort spot was this site that one of the daughters, a sister of Mrs. Moses Gregory, albeit married into one of the prominent and most pleasantly situated households of Troy, yearned for and finally returned to the ancient "Old Well" hearthstone. The Hoyts were Church of England people, and yet if the South Norwalk Congregation- al records are preserved evidence of their friendly feeling towards that body may easily be obtained. They parted with a slice of their homestead for said church purposes.

HENRY LE GRAND CANNON. See page 412.
This artist, great-grandson of Samuel and Sarah (Belden) Cannon (page 411) of Norwalk, was a descendant, maternally from Hugh and Matilda Lambert, whose son, Sir William, married a granddaughter of William the Conqueror. It is possible that his talent was, at least in some degree, an inheritance, but whether so or no such was his surprising conception-cleverness and execution-excellence that the memory of the young and opulent genius is rightly entitled to the honors of fame.
HARRIET STARR CANNON.
Great-grand nieee of "Commodore" John Cannon of Norwalk (page 413). She was the foundress of St. Mary's Hospital on "The Rocks," Norwalk (page 63 and note, page 71).

NORWALK.
HARRIET STARR CANNON.
"Commodore" John Cannon of Norwalk had a younger brother, LeGrand, born April 19, 1733, and baptized at ten years of age, who eventually made Stratford his home. At a little past twenty years of age on July 17, 1753, LeGrand Cannon of Stratford was married. He had eight children. His sixth child, Lewis LeGrand, born November 20, 1764, married on February 20, 1791, into the old Coe family of Stratford. Lewis LeGrand and Jerusha Cannon had six children, the oldest of whom was William, born September 15, 1793. William Cannon married October 17, 1820, Sally Hinman, and had, May 7, 1823, Harriet Starr, who became the Mother Superior of the Protestant Episcopal Sisterhood of St. Mary. "Mother Harriet," whose life was mercy-consecrate, died at the head of the organization referred to and was a woman of great executive ability. Coming young from the South, she early devoted her days to deeds of love and filled the passing hours with beneficent ministries. She planted St. Mary's Hospital for Children at the "Norwalk Rocks," and was happy in visiting her great-grand uncle's Norwalk home. She herself took the first patient to St. Luke's Hospital, New York, beginning her labors under the direction of the beloved Muhlenberg.
A "FAR WEST" CANNON DESCENDANT.
LeGrand, brother of "Commodore" John Cannon of Norwalk, married July 17, 1753, and he and his wife Charity became citizens of Stratford, Conn. They had four sons and four daughters. Their third son, James, who was born July 19, 1767, married in 1787 Mary Burritt, and was blessed with a large family. George, their fifth boy, born January 3, 1799, married in June, 1825, Marguerette, daughter of Dr. J. White of Albany, N. Y. From Albany George and Marguerette Cannon removed to Cleveland, Ohio, where five sons and one daughter were born to them. Charles Wesley, their third son, born July 1, 1833, married, March, 1868, Catharine B. Martine, and had one daughter and one son. The daughter, Bernice Martinique, born November 16, 1869, died a young lady not quite nineteen years of age. Her brother, William Legrand, was born September 24, 1872.
Charles W. (Hon.) and Catharine B. Cannon are the well known opulent Cannons of Helena, Montana. They belong to the Stratford rather than the Norwalk Cannon line, but have taken an active interest in this town's branch of the family. Their visit hither some some few years since, of inquiry and of investigation is well recalled and particularly their study of the Cannon painting in the John Cannon home on Norwalk green. Charles W. Cannon has preserved the inscriptions upon the lids (Tiffany copied) of the Cannon silver tankard which is said to have been used at the anniversary in France, of the wedding, of the New York Cannon foreparents. The inscriptions run thus :

WILLIAM ASPINWALL CANNON.
William Aspinwall, youngest son of John1st and Esther (Perry) Cannon, married on the first day of the winter of 1798 Betsey,1 born 1780, daughter of John#th and Rebecca
1 Betsey Seymour was a daughter of John4th and Rebecca Seymour, and granddaughter of John3rd and Ruth Belden Seymour, which Jolin Seymour3rd was a son of John2nd and Sarah (Gregory) Seymour, which John2nd was a son of Thomas1st and Hannah (Mar- vin) Seymour, and grandson of Richard Seymour1st, the Norwalk Seymour settler. Mrs. William A. Can- non (Betsey Seymour) married, second, Gershom Bradley, and had one daughter. Ruth, the sister of Betsey Seymour and ten years her junior, married Augustus Sammis of Lloyd's Neck, Queen's County, Long Island. After the marriage of Mr. Sammis himself and Norwalk bride returned to Long Island, where was born to them February 27, 1787, the now remembered venerable John Seymour Sammis, through whose veins ran, beside the Seymour blood, that of four other principal Norwalk founders, viz: Belden, Gregory, Keeler and Marvin. John S. and Naney W. Sammis were married January 25, 1809, and were the parents of Naney, born June 20, 1814 (Mrs. William Gale, first, and second, Mrs. Dan- iel F. Benediet, a most worthy woman, recently de- ceased), and Elizabeth, born December 6, 1817, and William Cannon, born November 26, 1818, and Augustus, born July 21, 1821, and Elizabeth Cannon, born February 6, 1824, and Alexander, born Deeem- ber 27, 1827 (died in infancy), and Helen E., born May 27, 1827 (one of Norwalk's bright and lovely school girls, who married Daniel Sanford of Redding).
William C. Sammis, son of John S., married, May 4, 1842, Sarah Ann, daughter of Captain Daniel K. Nash (page 109), and had John S., Theodore A., Franeis, Helen Eva, Mary, William E., Augustus.
Augustus (M. D.), son of John S. Sammis, mar-
ried Mary A., daughter of Daniel Star Bartram (page 327) of Norwalk, and had: William A., born Decem- ber 20, 1849, and Elizabeth S. and Mary L., twins, born July 15, 1852. Dr. Augustus Sammis and his wife, Mary A., were two excellent children of this town. They were school mates in early life, both of them studious and both favorites. Their intimacy began in youth and grew as years increased. The Doctor's recitations in the classics to his tutor were exceptionally thorough, and his grasp of the ancient tongues was remarkable. He studied medieine with the elder Dr. John A. McLean.
John S., son of William Cannon Sammis, married Christine, daughter of J. J. Cape, and had Helen E., Frederick C., Theodore, Louise C., Emma C., John S.
Theodore A., son of William C. Sammis, married Lena Doolittle, and had William D., Evelyn V. W., Theodore A.
Franeis, son of William C. Sammis, married Frances A. Allen, and had William E. (died young), Louise B., born July 18, 1881, Edna, born February 4, 1889.
William E., son of William C. Sammis, married in New York (no children), and his brother Augustus is unmarried
William A., son of Dr. Augustus and Mary A. Sammis, married Emma F. Gamesby and had Clara E., born November 28, 1880, Helen E., born May 10, 1882.
The children of Daniel and Helen E. (Sammis) Sanford were Helen E. (Mrs. H. S. Barnes), Julia I., and Daniel Sammis. The latter, Daniel Sammis San- ford, has early distinguished himself as an educator.

(Keeler) Seymour (page 157). The groom was thirty-one and the bride eighteen years old when the Rev. Dr. William Smith united them. They had no children. The Seymours early established themselves in that portion of the township which is now the city of South Nor- walk, where they have long remained and are to this day broadly known. The Cannons were "up town "' people, and as William A. was the first and the only one of his family to bridally link himself to this important portion of the plantation, passing reference to a section or two of olden "Old Well" may not be an altogether far-fetched Cannon comment conclusion.
Cleared land was a desideratum to the Norwalk pioneers, who found this to some extent in what they denominated the "planting field " (Benedict's farm), but a broad tract lay across the harbor (Old Well) which they soon appropriated, designating it as the "great meadow on the other side of the river." The stream was no barrier to the genius of such men as Thomas Fitch and Surveyors Richard Olmstead and Richard Webb. They soon constructed a ferry from "Fort Point" landing, on the west side, a little above the present coal wharf of J. H. Ferris. From thence diverged two paths, the northerly one not far from the present layout of Marshall Street, and the southerly path along the Washington Street of the present time. The first led over Flax Hill and the second to the "great meadow" (site of Railroad Place, West Washington Street, South Main Street, and the large level which now constitutes the site-centre of the city of South Norwalk) and the "lower meadow" (between Meadow Street and Kaiser Island of 1899). The earliest use of the "Ferry" (probably a raft constructed of logs pinned together which was "poled " across the stream) was for the transportation of live stock. By degrees " the other side of the river," afterward "Old Well," became populated. Samuel, son of Matthew Campfield (see page 287) was an early builder. He established himself at "Campfield's Hill," in the vicinity of to-day's "Whistleville" dis- trict. Across this neighborhood was cut the road to "Ely's Neck." This path, subsequently road, really commenced at the present corner of West Avenue and West Street, where is now erected the new commodious Second Congregational Church of South Norwalk. The first house as, going west one turned the corner, was the ancient home, depicted on the following page, of James, afterwards Isaac Hoyt. This house sheltered the early members of that branch of the Hoyt family (see page 129). It finally becanie the property of Isaac Hoyt, father of Mrs. Charles R. Sherman, through the family of Munson Hoyt of Bridgeport. (Said Munson, see page 357, had a large home establishment on the present Water Street in Bridgeport.) Here the young Mary Hoyt, Mrs. Sherman, was brought up, and from hence she went to be educated at the New York Sketchley sisters' school (page 135). The embroidery at that institution, of the page 417 displayed Norwalk-retained piece, was by a young visiting friend of Miss Mary Hoyt, a daughter of the Lord of "Phillipse Manor" on the Hudson.
The Isaac Hoyt Home was fronted by a row of fine cherry trees and backed by an apple orchard. It extended quite over the present " Beard Hill," and was north-bounded by a path which may to-day be seen in the rear of the Edward Beard residence in South Norwalk. Mrs. Isaac Hoyt (Mary Raymond) was the daughter of Eliakim and Hannah (Street) Ray- mond, whose residence has been supplanted by the Washington Street Donovan Building of 1899. There, where to-day business has its seat, Mary Raymond and her four sisters,

Rebecca, Esther,1 Elizabeth and Hannah (pages 129, 130 and 135) quietly enjoyed themselves. The old home stood tenanted until Saturday afternoon, July 10, 1779, when, at eventide, a son (Nathaniel) brought up the team and as Tryon's forces were entering the harbor took the family away to a place of safety and left the domicile to be consumed at break of day next morning. Nathaniel, the brother who conveyed his parents to their shelter from Tryon's attack, built, at the close of the war (1783), the old Raymond structure now standing at the foot of Washington Street, north side. His brother George became an officer under PAUL JONES, and his residence was afterwards the Chichester house, now southeast corner of Washington and South Main Streets. His other brothers were Eliakim, Street, Henry and Napthali.
The descendants of Eliakim and Hannah Raymond have colonial "honor" record
1Esther. born February 13, 1757, daughter of Eliakim and Hannah (Street) Raymond, married (page 129) Hezekiah, son of Dr. Uriah and Hannah (Loekwood) Rogers (page 179), and resided next north of the Charles R. Sherman Main Street house. Mrs. Hezekiah Rogers (note, page 42) was aunt to Mrs. Sherman, and the dwellings of both these rela- tives are standing in 1899. Jesse Lee, the founder of Methodism in America, made his first visit to Nor- walk on Wednesday, June 11, 1789, reaching the town at about 4 o'eloek P. M. His first eall would appear to have been upon Mrs. Rogers, from whom he asked the use of her rooms in which to hold a ser- viee. As Mr. Rogers was not at home his wife felt
that she must deeline. Mr. Lee after suggesting the neighboring orehard as a convenient gathering spot, finally went into the shaded highway fronting the Rogers, and there preached New England's maiden Methodist sermon, the text being, "ye must be born again." The faet of Mrs. Rogers' non-compliance with Mr. Lee's request is offset by the later faet that the eradle of Norwalk Methodism was the identieal ehild- home of the said lady. After the day of Eliakim Raymond (her father) the old family home (site in 1899 of the Washington Street Donovan store) was purehased by Absalom Day, through whose unflag- ging zeal the organization of the Norwalk Methodist body was accomplished. (See page 364.)

from the fact that on December 5, 1774, the father, Eliakim, was the first named of a com- mittee of twenty chosen to act in a matter of Continental Congress emanation.
The "Ely Neck" road wound from Isaac Hoyt's west as far as the corner of the pres- ent Spring and West Streets, whence it diverged to the left until was reached the "Whistle- ville " Consolidated bridge of 1899, whence it bore to the right and then taking a generally southerly direction ended at Belden's Point. Some of Norwalk's older citizens, Seymour, Wilcox, Smith, Byxbee, Daniel and Raymond Hoyt, lived along its line. John Hoyt1 lived on the height (Whistleville) near the turn in the Ely Neck road.
"The Flax Hill Road (West Street of 1889), from which the Ely Neck path diverged. was one of the oldest designations of ancient Norwalk, and the name (see page 126) is per- petuation-worthy. It commenced, to speak exactly, at the flower adorned yard of William and Lydia Seymour (site to-day of South Norwalk Franklin Street School). A sparkling brook from the Indian woods (Bull Run of 1896) crossed the base of the hill which extended west along its present layout as far as "Fox Hollow,"2 a region now headed by the Dr. Burke home. The next rise (west) was " Roton Hill." John Raymond lived at the eastern extremity of Flax Hill. The liberty pole and parade ground were at its summit (north side, opposite Senator John A. Ferris' home, 1896) and the Wood's3 lived near its western extremity.
1Zerubbabel, the youngest son of Walter Hoyt, the Norwalk settler, had four sons and two daugh- ters. His third son, Daniel, who was born January 1, 1681, married at about the age of twenty-three and had John, born Deeember 3, 1716, who married Sarah, daughter of James and Deborah (Stewart) Piekett, and granddaughter of James1st and Rebecca (Keeler) Pickett, and of James1st and Experience Stuart, all of Norwalk. John and Sarah Hoyt had John, born May 8, 1755, who married, June 5, 1783, Ruth, born February 3, 1764, daughter of Stephen and Mary (Benedict) Gregory, and granddaughter of John3rd and Mary (Smith) Gregory. John and Ruth Hoyt lived on the high ground immediately north of the 1898 Railroad bridge at "Whistleville." Mr. Hoyt was a large land owner. He was very success- ful in his growth and afterward manufacture of flax. Near his residence stood a large building to which flax was brought for fabric-preparation. From far and near the grain was brought for treatment by Mr. John Hoyt. After pulling (not eutting) it in the field root, stalk and head were "crackled," beaten, lietch- cheled and bleached. It was now ready for making up. Mr. Hoyt made quantities of cart rope from the vegetable. Flax manufacture was quite an industry with him.
2This wild extended from the west foot of Flax Hill as far down as Belden's Neck. The stream which passes near the Wilson Point Oil Works of 1896 seems to have coursed to a greater or less extent the Fox Hollow district. At the termination of this dis- trict, and directly east of "Witch Lane," exists to- day a small romantie patch which, 'ere the hand of progress shall invade it, is entitled to preservation as a veritable Naramake haunt.
