She married Eli Hubbard on July 23, 1826 in Lincoln County, Missouri. She was the mother of Rebecca Hubbard Averett Harper.
From the Cannon Book by Clarence Cannon:
Kezia Cannon was born in Christian County, Kentucky, and came with the family to Missouri in 1817. Her marriage, which is the ninth recorded in Lincoln County, was solemnized by Rev. David Hubbard, a Baptist Minister, who was later married to her niece. Kezia is said to have been a woman of unusual beauty. She was killed by her horse which ran with her through the forest while she was riding from the sugar camp near her father's home. Like all the Cannon women, she was an expert rider and was proud of her horsemanship. She was riding her favorite mare, which she had christened Polly. The animal was restless from standing in the cold and she was cautioned as she left the camp, but laughed and remarked that Poll could not throw her off. Galloping through the woods on her way back, the horse broke from her control and she was hurled against an overhanging oak and never spoke again, dying that night.
Her burial location is unknown.
